Thunder Storms



With all the heavy dark clouds, the rumbling thunder, the flashes of lightning
and the downpour of rains we have recently endured
(thanks to Mother Nature), this story enlightened me...
which I share with you:

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 school.

As the afternoon progressed, the winds whipped up,
along with the lightning.

The mother of the little girl felt concerned that her daughter
would be frightened as she walked home from school.
She also feared the electrical storm might harm her.

Full of concern, the mother got into her car
and quickly drove along the route to her child's school.

As she did, she saw her little girl walking along.
At each flash of lightning,the child would stop, look up and smile.

More lightning following quickly and with each,
the little girl would look up at the streak of light and smile.

When the mother drew up beside the child,
she lowered the window and called, “What are you doing?”

The child answered, “I am trying to look pretty
because God keeps taking my picture.”



May God bless you today and every day
as you face the storms that come your way!
