Winking at God

By Darcie Fuqua

“God is spirit, and his worshipers must worship in the Spirit and in truth.” — John 4:24

I remember winking at God as a child and effortlessly chatting with Him as if He was my invisible friend. There was a picture of me when I turned six in a puffy purple jacket with socks on my hands. If you strain your eyes to examine the grainy print, you will see a broad smile and a snowball in one of those sock-covered hands. I had prayed for snow on my birthday, and God delivered a fresh dusting of white powder in the deep South, where snow is pretty much nonexistent. On that frigid day, I clearly recall thanking God for the perfect gift, followed by a right-eyed wink.
