After Jody’s stroke, friends came at first, and then dwindled off. When Lilith got cancer, the church prayed, brought meals, and scrubbed her toilet.

The milk of human kindness often turns sour, but the Cream of God's Love last a liftime... by their fruits you will know them. Two good stories. Well done.

You certainly have the knack for the Micro Stories. This one would have be very difficult to write for a regular entry and keep it under 750 words. You took less than 25 words and let our imaginations supply the details for an entire book.

This is a great example of a Micro Story.

How true! Compassion of Christ flows through the saints... I like the part, "dwindled off" -- because that does happen. It's like my wife recently said of my mother-in-law (her mom!) -- I can go stay and help her for a week, and then come home -- but she lives with it every day. "It" is cancer...
