Did you tell the poor ragamuffins that your football was a gift from God (even though it was your friend who paid for it), or did you just lob it at them out of the blue? Unlike the old days, I think children have been brought up to be pretty wary of strangers.
We did not even mention God when he threw them the ball, rather, we had just done some Christmas shopping and he was in the Christmas mood for giving.
