I am not sure if I am up to posting anything on this particular day but I am hoping this will provide a little bit of light on an otherwise emotional day. I am hopeful we can all put aside our negative and angry feelings and realize the past is the past and for all of us to try to make tomorrow the best possible.

God's Camera


A little girl walked daily to and from school. Though the weather one morning was questionable and clouds were forming, she made her daily trek to the elementary school.

As the day progressed, the winds whipped up, along with thunder and lightning. The mother of the little girl was worried that her daughter would be frightened as she walked home from school, and she herself feared that the electrical storm might harm her child. Following the roar of the thunder, lightning would cut through the sky like a flaming sword.

Being concerned, the mother got into her car and drove along the route to her child's school. Soon she saw her daughter walking along, but at each flash of lightning, the child would stop, look and smile. One followed another, each with the little girl stopping, looking at the streak of light and smiling.

Finally, the mother called her over to the car and asked, ''What are you doing?''

The child answered, ''God keeps taking pictures of me!''
As always

you come through again. Thanks for the message.
Always

something to make me appreciate the value of everyday life. I love your posts.

Thank God for Innocence!

''Innocence, Love & Faith...from the mouth of babes''.
I can have a day or week that I feel so frustrated and am so caught up in the worries that life throws my way and then be blessed to have a simple conversation with my 14 year old son, or my 2 grandaughters. Invariably, I get some sort of a ''view of life like this''. A view that, no matter what, life is GREAT, life is beautiful and filled with LOVE & HOPE.
Thanks for sharing this, lionjack!
