Word for the Day ~ Wanda

Just a thought about how we as adults weather the storms in our life.

When lightening strikes do we look up and smile or do we cringe then run for cover.

As Christians, God's Word should never be any further than from our heart to our mouth. Prayer not fear should be the first to enter our heart and mind. With prayer comes peace and with peace a smile.


May God bless you as you weather the storms of your life and don't forget to smile. Wanda

A little girl walked to and from school daily. Though the weather that

morning was questionable and clouds were forming, she made her daily

trek to the elementary school. As the afternoon progressed, the winds

whipped up, along with thunder and lightning. The mother of the little

girl felt concerned that her daughter would be frightened as she walked

home from school and she herself feared that the electrical storm might

harm her child.




Full of concern, the mother quickly got into her car and drove along the

route to her child's school. As she did so, she saw her little girl

walking along, but at each flash of lightning, the child would stop,

look up and smile. Another and an other were to follow quickly and with

each the little girl would look at the streak of light and smile.



When the mother's car drew up beside the child she lowered the window

and called to her, 'What are you doing?' The child answered, 'I am

trying to look pretty. God keeps taking my picture.'
