On entering church one Sunday morning before the service began, I happened to notice a young boy using a cup to get a drink from the water fountain. “Did you get that cup of water for me?” I asked him jokingly. He smiled and shook his head, “No,” and I continued on my way. When I stopped to talk to another couple for a few minutes, I happened to notice this same young boy standing by my side. As I looked down at him to acknowledge his presence, he gave a shy smile and reached out his hands. He was holding another cup filled with cold water. “Is that for me?” I asked. He nodded his head, “Yes,” and continued on his way.
