Mark 4: 21-23 page 2 by ric Gustafson
Mary was dusting the display shelf. She noticed a middle aged woman quietly walk into the aisle. She began to study the lamps.
" May I help you?".
" I'm looking for a lamp" she replied as she stared at the lamps. " So far none of these interest me".
" We have several beautiful lamps". She resumed dusting them. " I'm sure you'll find one that you'll like".
Elaine Marshall knelt down and began to separate some of the lamps. She took out the faded green lamp and handed it to Mary. " This small lamp has caught my eye".
" You don't want this plain little lamp" Mary replied as she tried to change her mind. " We have many beautiful lamps".
" I'll take this one" she said as she held up the small lamp. " I also want a plain lamp shade".
Mary handed her a lampshade. She smiled as she began walking toward a check out stand.
Mary shook her head in frustration. She went back to her dusting duties.
