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
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 child.
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 followed quickly and with each, the little girl would look
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 everyday as
you
face the storms that come your way!
