    God didn't promise days without pain, laughter without sorrow, or sun without rain, but He did promise strength for the day, comfort for the tears, and light for the way. If God brings you to it, He will bring you through it.

    Poem that will give you goose bumps..............

    A drunk man in an Oldsmobile
    They said had run the light
    That caused the six-car pileup
    On 109 that night.

    When broken bodies lay about
    And blood was everywhere,
    The sirens screamed out eulogies,
    For death was in the air.

    A mother, trapped inside her car,
    Was heard above the noise;
    Her plaintive plea near split the air:
    Oh, God, please spare my boys!"

    She fought to loose her pinned hands;
    She struggled to get free,
    But mangled metal held her fast
    In grim captivity.

    Her frightened eyes then focused
    On where the back seat once had been,
    But all she saw was broken glass and
    Two children's seats crushed in.

    Her twins were nowhere to be seen;
    She did not hear them cry,
    And then she prayed they'd been thrown free,
    Oh, God, don't let them die!"

    Then firemen came and cut her loose,
    But when they searched the back,
    They found therein no little boys,
    But the seat belts were intact.

    They thought the woman had gone mad
    And was travelling alone,
    But when they turned to question her,
    They discovered she was gone.

    Policemen saw her running wild
    And screaming above the noise
    In beseeching supplication,
    Please help me find my boys!

    They're four years old and wear blue shirts;
    Their jeans are blue to match."
    One cop spoke up, "They're in my car,
    And they don't have a scratch.

    They said their daddy put them there
    And gave them each a cone,
    Then told them both to wait for Mom
    To come and take them home.

    I've searched the area high and low,
    But I can't find their dad.
    He must have fled the scene,
    I guess, and that is very bad."

    The mother hugged the twins and said,
    While wiping at a tear,
    He could not flee the scene, you see,
    For he's been dead a year."

    The cop just looked confused and asked,
    Now, how can that be true?"
    The boys said, "Mommy, Daddy came
    And left a kiss for you."

    He told us not to worry
    And that you would be all right,
    And then he put us in this car with
    The pretty, flashing light.

    We wanted him to stay with us,
    Because we miss him so,
    But Mommy, he just hugged us tight
    And said he had to go.

    He said someday we'd understand
    And told us not to fuss,
    And he said to tell you, Mommy,
    He's watching over us."

    The mother knew without a doubt.
    That what they spoke was true,
    For she recalled their dad's last words,
    I will watch over you."

    The firemen's notes could not explain
    The twisted, mangled car,
    And how the three of them escaped
    Without a single scar.

    But on the cop's report was scribed,
    In print so very fine,
    An angel walked the beat tonight
    on Hwy. 109

    One day a 6 year old was sitting in a classroom. The teacher was going to explain evolution to the children. The teacher asked a little boy:

    TEACHER: Tommy do you see the tree outside?
    TOMMY: Yes.
    TEACHER: Tommy, do you see the grass outside?
    TOMMY: Yes.
    TEACHER: Go outside and look up and see if you can see the sky.
    TOMMY: Okay. (He returned a few minutes later) Yes, I saw the sky.
    TEACHER: Did you see God?
    TOMMY: No.
    TEACHER: That's my point. We can't see God because he isn't there. He just doesn't exist.

    A little girl spoke up and wanted to ask the boy some questions.

    The teacher agreed and the little girl asked the
    boy:
    LITTLE GIRL: Tommy, do you see the tree outside?
    TOMMY: Yes
    LITTLE GIRL: Tommy do you see the grass outside?
    TOMMY: Yessssss!
    LITTLE GIRL: Did you see the sky?
    TOMMY: Yessssss!
    LITTLE GIRL: Tommy, do you see the teacher?
    TOMMY: Yes.
    LITTLE GIRL: Do you see her brain?
    TOMMY: No.
    LITTLE GIRL: Then according to what we were taught today in school, she must not have one!

    BURN!

    A little girl went to her bedroom and pulled a glass jelly jar
    from its hiding place in the closet. She poured the change out
    on the floor and counted it carefully. Three times, even. The
    total had to be exactly perfect. No chance here for mistakes.
    Carefully placing the coins back in the jar and twisting on
    the cap, she slipped out the back door and made her way 6
    blocks to Rexall's Drug Store with the big red Indian Chief
    sign above the door.
    She waited patiently for the pharmacist to give her some
    attention but he was too busy at this moment.
    Tess twisted her feet to make a scuffing noise.
    Nothing.
    She cleared her throat with the most disgusting sound she
    could muster
    No good.
    Finally she took a quarter from her jar and banged it on the
    glass counter.
    That did it!
    "And what do you want?" the pharmacist asked in an annoyed
    tone of voice. "I'm talking to my brother from Chicago whom I
    haven't seen in ages," he said without waiting for a reply >> to
    his question.
    "Well, I want to talk to you about my brother," Tess answered
    back in the same annoyed tone. "He's really, really sick...
    and I want to buy a miracle."
    ''I beg your pardon?" said the pharmacist.
    His name is Andrew and he has something bad growing inside >> his
    head and my Daddy says only a miracle can save him now. So >> how
    much does a miracle cost?"
    "We don't sell miracles here, little girl. I'm sorry but I
    can't help you," the pharmacist said, softening a little.
    "Listen, I have the money to pay for it. If it isn't enough,I
    will get the rest. Just tell me how much it costs."
    The pharmacist's brother was a well dressed man. He stooped
    down and asked the little girl, "What kind of a miracle does
    your brother need?"
    I don't know," Tess replied with her eyes welling up. "I just
    know he's really sick and Mommy says he needs an operation.
    But my Daddy can't pay for it, so I want to use my money."
    "How much do you have?" asked the man from Chicago.
    "One dollar and eleven cents," Tess answered barely audibly.
    And it's all the money I have, but I can get some more if I
    need to."
    "Well, what a coincidence," smiled the man. "A dollar and
    >> eleven cents--- the exact price of a miracle for little
    brothers. "
    He took her money in one hand and with the other hand he
    grasped her mitten and said "Take me to where you live. I want
    to see your brother and meet your parents. Let's see if I have
    the miracle you need."
    That well dressed man was Dr. Carlton Armstrong, a surgeon,
    specializing in neuro-surgery. The operation was completed
    free of charge and it wasn't long until Andrew was home again
    and doing well. Mom and Dad were happily talking about the
    chain of events that had led them to this place.
    "That surgery," her Mom whispered. "was a real miracle. I wonder how much it would have cost?"
    Tess smiled.. She knew exactly how much a miracle cost...one dollar and eleven cents ..... plus the faith of a little child..

    Just because you can't see it doesn't mean it isn't there. You can't see the future, yet you know it will come; you can't see the air, yet you continue to breathe.
