MIRACULOUS BATH WATER
SOME FOURTH GRADERS I TAUGHT INFORMED ME OF A STORY
THAT THEIR THIRD GRADE TEACHER, SR. WILMA, HAD TOLD THEM
THE YEAR BEFORE:
JUST ABOUT THE TIME JESUS WAS BORN, ANOTHER LADY IN
BETHLEHEM HAD A BABY, TOO. THIS BABY WAS ALL
CRIPPLED. ONE DAY, JESUS' MOTHER WAS GIVING HIM A
BATH. THE LADY KNEW THERE WAS SOMETHING SPECIAL ABOUT
MARY'S BABY, AND ASKED TO USE THE SAME WATER. WHEN SHE
TOOK HER LITTLE BOY OUT OF THE WATER, HE WASN'T
CRIPPLED ANY MORE.
