WHEN CHRISTMAS COMES CALLING
When Christmas comes calling, I always remember to remember the children
This one is actually a true life story cos it's the story of my life. The one I will always be grateful for and will never forget
THE BEGINNING
I was Seven years old and I remember sitting under one mango tree in deep thought about what would be fate of my nearest future.
It was exactly two days before Christmas and I overheard my parents arguing about the fact that there wasn't enough money to get Christmas gifts for me and my younger brother.
So, Here I was, under a big tree, very depressed.
I mean If you had seen me, you would have thought I lost my parents.
What in the world was I thinking about?
What will I do when I get back to school? When my friends showcase their Christmas gifts and tell the story?
I remember saying few lines in prayer " O dear God, please help me! "
It wasn't up to 2 minutes, my cousin came running up to me. Have you heard? She asked, looking so delightful
One of the richest guys in our little village is doing a special Christmas treat for all the children.
It was my best Christmas. I was given assorted toys and I even won a sport bike... The single one element of all my everyday prayers,,to God.
I was greatly impacted in a most remarkable way. I thought wow! Somebody remembered the children.
so my dear steemit friends, when Christmas comes calling, I always remember to remember the children
THE END
It was this experience that inspired my Christmas article.
Kindly check out guys, it was right from my heart.
