A little boy walked to and from school daily.
Though the weather that morning
was questionable and clouds were
forming, he made his daily
trek to the elementary school.
As the afternoon progressed,
the winds whipped up,
along with thunder and lightning.

The mother of the little boy felt concerned
that her son would be frightened
as he walked home from school
and she herself feared that the electrical
storm might harm her child.

Following the roar of thunder,
lightning would cut through the sky like
a flaming sword.

Full of concern, the mother quickly got into
her car and drove along the route to her
child's school. As she did so, she saw her
little boy walking along, but at each flash
of lightning, the child would stop, look up
and smile. Another and another were to
follow quickly and with each the little boy
would look at the streak of light and smile.

When the mother's car drew up beside the
child, she lowered the window and called
to him, "What are you doing?
Why do you keep stopping?"

The child answered,
"I am trying to look nice.
God keeps taking my picture."

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