My grandfather passed away earlier this week.
During the veiwing I was called aside by a lady in my church.
Her little boy (5 years old) knows me from church because sometimes, I'll do magic for the kids if there's nothing for them to do.
Needless to say, I'm quite popular among the children.
Anyway, she called me aside and said, "I just wanted you to know that almost hourly today, my son has asked about you and how you're doing. He didn't know why we were coming here and so I told him it was your grandfather that had died and that's why we were here. Since then, he's asked about you numerous times throughout the day."
At that moment, he came walking up and let me know in his own words that he was sorry for my loss.
This happened again with another little boy who I didn't even expect to remember me. However, somehow he got away from his parents to come and tell me that he hoped I felt better.
No wonder Christ said not to offend even the least...
That day, all the magic I had ever done for them... was returned in the magic they were to me.
Of all those who wished me their sympathy, I was the most touched and most comforted by them.
I'm glad I took time for them, it payed back even more than I gave.

Thanks for sharing this. That was great. Sorry to hear of your loss. My Grandad on my Mom's side died a few years ago, and it was difficult, but God gave me some wonderful proofs while visiting that he was with Him.

Yeah, but they can torture you, but it is worth it.
