Storm Clouds
A small child
walked daily to and from school. Though the weather one morning was questionable and
clouds were forming, this child 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 child would be frightened walking back home from school, and she herself feared
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 small child walking along, but at each flash of
lightning, the child would Stop, look and smile. One followed another, each time with her
child stopping, looking at the streak of light and smiling.
Finally, the mother called and asked, "What are you doing?" Her child answered,
"God keeps taking pictures of me."
