Welcome to Butterfly Bend.

Got cold feet?
Tired feet? Sore feet?
Dirty feet? Hot feet?
Are your feet not taking you where you want to go?


Please, take your shoes off ...
and sit a minute

Let's talk!



An eyewitness account, on a cold December day:

A little boy was standing before a shoe store window, peering inside,
shivering with cold.

A woman approached the young boy and said,
"My, but you're in such deep thought staring at that window!"

"I was asking God to give me a pair of shoes," was the boy's reply.

The woman took him by the hand, entered the store,
and asked the clerk to get a half dozen pairs of socks for the boy.
She then asked for a basin of water and a towel.

He quickly brought them to her.

She took the young man to the back part of the store, and removing her gloves, knelt down,
washed his little feet, and dried them with the towel.

By this time, the clerk had returned with the socks.

Placing a pair upon the boy's feet, she then purchased him a pair of shoes.

The clerk bagged the remaining pairs of socks and gave them to the boy.
The woman patted the little boy on the head and said, "No doubt, you will be more comfortable now."

As she turned to go, the astonished boy caught her by the hand,
and looking up into her face, with tears in his eyes, asked her,
"Are you God's wife?"
