Christmas Story... leave comments~! :)

A little girl about the age of 10 looked out the window on a cold morning, it was Christmas Eve, and they were all to get tangerines, which was precious because it was the only fresh fruit they got all year. This year, the girl, Janie wouldn't be getting her own... she'd be getting more...
A little boy stood at the door of the orphanage, crying and beating his tiny fists at the door. As Janie was looking out the window, it caught her eye. She ran at the door, and opened it for the boy.
" Janie! Do not let strangers in! " The Orphanage owner yelled.
" Mrs. Philips, hes only a little boy! Hes an orphan!"
" I haven't got the time or money to care for that Janie! How dare you not listen? "
And with that, Mrs. Philips slammed the door before the boy. Hot tears running down the boys face, he stood at the door shivering. Seeing this, Janie was saddened. 6 inches of snow covered the streets. Janie was blessed to have a roof over her head, but she still looked at the boy with a heart of pain, experiencing this at such young age was strange... A tear rolled down her cheek as she shut the blinds of her window...
" YAY!!!!" The children yelled, receiving their tangerines... Janie looked at hers and smiled. It had been a year since she had fresh fruit, and boy she was glad. As she was about to open it, a thought came to her mind. She ran to the window and put up the blinds. There was the boy, shivering, looking pale, and hungry. Seeing this Janie looked at her own tangerine, thinking,This is my only tangerine of the whole year... but she took the tangerine and opened the door. The boy cowered, afraid it might be the lady. It was only Janie, standing at the door, with her tangerine. It looked so savory, and so sweet. She wrapped it in a little handkercheif and handed it to the boy.
" You must be hungry, here, have this tangerine." she said. The boy looked up at her, face red from crying. A smile ran across his face, and this smile was like a warm sun to Janie.
" And here," she started while taking off her coat." you must be cold, here take this." she said handing her own coat, her only coat to the boy.
" T-thank y-you. " the boy said shivering. He wore the coat and took the tangerine.
" Merry Christmas." Janie said. She closed the door and felt happy. She had once remembered her mother telling her about Jesus making miracles and multiplying the two of fish and bread from the little boy to enough to feed 500. She thought of this and smiled. She had given what she had, and she felt good. Suddenly, the children ran to her and smiled. One came up to her and started," Janie, we saw what you did! It was so nice of you, so..." Each of the children each gave her one slice of tangerine, leaving her with many. They smiled at her. She smiled, too, feeling very blessed.

It shows that Jesus works in many ways, he worked through a 10 year old girl, and then blessed her with more than she wanted, from the others... God bless ya'll~!
 
I'd like to admit that didn't sound good.... i havent even revised it... i added some things from another story, first the real one was a boy and he got into a fight with another boy so he couldnt get a tangerine but they each gave one of theirs to him... I guess i changed it alot..... but yeah... it doesnt matter right? i can do better~ God bless you alll........ ~ me
