A一杯牛奶的温暖
一天,一个贫穷的小男孩为了攒够学费正挨家挨户地推销商品。
饥寒交迫的他摸遍全身,却只有一角钱。
于是他决定向下一户人家讨口饭吃。
然而,当一位美丽的年轻女子打开房门的时候,这个小男孩却有点不知所措了。
他没有要饭,只乞求给他一口水喝。
这位女子看到他饥饿的样子,就倒了一大杯牛奶给他。
男孩慢慢地喝完牛奶,问道:
“我应该付多少钱?
年轻女子微笑着回答:
“一分钱也不用付。
我妈妈教导我,施以爱心,不图回报。
”男孩说:
“那么,就请接受我由衷的感谢吧!
”说完,霍华德-凯利就离开了这户人家。
此时的他不仅自己浑身是劲儿,而且更加相信上帝和整个人类。
本来,他都打算放弃了。
数年之后,那位女子得了一种罕见的重病,当地医生对此束手无策。
最后,她被转到大城市医治,由专家会诊治疗。
大名鼎鼎的霍华德-凯利医生也参加了医疗方案的制定。
当他听到病人来自的那个城镇的名字时,一个奇怪的念头霎时间闪过他的脑际。
他马上起身直奔她的病房。
身穿手术服的凯利医生来到病房,一眼就认出了恩人。
回到会诊室后,他决心一定要竭尽所能来治好她的病。
从那天起,他就特别关照这个对自己有恩的病人。
