Guest guest Posted August 18, 2005 Report Share Posted August 18, 2005 Om Namah Shivaya-- This arrived in my inbox this morning from a friend.. Moved me very much and I thought I'd share it with you : ---- Think About This A little girl walked daily to and from school. Though the weather one morning was questionable and clouds were forming, she made the daily trek to the elementary school. As the day progressed, the winds whipped up, along with thunder and lightning. The mother was worried that her daughter would be frightened walking back home from school, and she herself feared the electrical storm might cause her harm. Following each roar of the thunder, lightning would cut through the sky like a flaming sword. Being very concerned, the mother got into her car and drove along the route to the school. Soon she saw her small child walking along. The thunder would boom, and then, at each flash of lightning, the child would stop, look and smile. One followed another, each time with her child stopping, looking up at the streak of light and smiling. Finally, the mother called out and asked, "Honey, what are you doing?" Her little girl answered, "God keeps taking pictures of me!" God asks us to have the faith of a child. As adults we want to find a rational answer to everything and we are beset with fears. God tells us that though we walk through the valley of doubt and despair we are assured of His grace and mercy that make us triumphant in all our ways.
