A little girl walked to and from school daily. The weather one morning was questionable and clouds were forming, yet she made her daily trek to the elementary school. As the afternoon progressed, the winds whipped up, along with thunder and lightning. The mother of the little girl felt concerned that her daughter would be frightened as she walked home from school and she feared that the electrical storm might harm her child. Following the roar of thunder, lightning, like a flaming sword, would cut through the sky. Full of concern, the mother quickly got into her car and drove along the route to her childs school. As she did so, she saw her little girl 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 girl would look at the streak of light and smile. When the mothers car drew up beside the child she lowered the window and called to her, What are you doing? Why do you keep stopping? The child answered, I am trying to look pretty. God keeps taking my picture. May God bless you today as you face the storms that come your way ... some might look really difficult especially to those watching passing through them. But don’t frown at your problems. Simply smile at them. [Source:The Church Newspaper Zambia]
