Once upon a time
I was sleeping soundly on a very early Wednesday morning
1:30 am to be exact,
when I was awakend by something......
I heard a voice say "Put your hands up"
In my sleepy brain, I did as I was told...
then thought whoa.....what is going on?
I immediately jumped out of bed
looked out my bedroom window and saw...
Nothing.....
looked out every window of my house,
and saw
Nothing.....
So I went back to bed and to sleep.
That Saturday morning, I went to my back patio,
to do my weekly sweeping.
There was a long pole in my flower bed.
It looked like a piece of gray PVC pipe,
so I tossed it back over the fence thinking it belonged to
my neighbor and that the wind had simply blown it over.
A few feet down in my flower bed
(which I admit is sadly lacking in the flower department)
I
found
this:
There were also imprints in the dirt
that looked like someone had landed pretty hard there.
At least there weren't many flowers to
"break his fall".
I wouldn't want him to have been comfortable
when he landed.
Why this person left his shirt behind, I have no idea.
What he was going to do with that pole....
I don't want to think about.
Tender mercies of the Lord?
I think so.
I found out later that this person had tried to break into
my neighbors back door.
The neighbor that lives
NEXT DOOR TO ME!
Tender mercies of the Lord?
No doubt about it.
A blessing of being watched over and protected
by a loving Father in Heaven?
An absolute
YES!!
I AM A BELIEVER!
