A MIRACLE

THIS IS ONE OF THOSE MIRACLES PEOPLE CAN EXPLAIN AWAY. But a miracle nevertheless.

Last Monday, an 8-year-old boy from our church was going across the street when he was hit by a car traveling 25 miles per hour. The father received a call telling him his son was been hit by a car, and was taken to the hospital. That he should come quickly.

He didn't know if his son was dead or alive - and through tears, as he traveled the miles to the hospital he called everyone he could think of and asked them to pray for his little boy.

When he rushed into the hospital all he wanted was to see his son. The policeman there to meet him stopped him, and said, "Wait a minute. He's O K."

What do you mean OK....he was just hit by a car?

The policeman explained that when he was hit by the car he was thrown 10 - 15 feet through the air - that it should have been a fatality - but that they had done all the tests - and that all they could find on the boy was a small scratch on the palm of his hand - and a couple of small abrasions on his back where he skidded on the pavement when he landed after sailing through the air. No broken bones, no internal injuries.

The policeman accompanied the father to the child's bedside, and said to the boy, "Son, you were really lucky."

The little 8-year-old boy's response to the Policeman was, "It wasn't luck. God protected me."

Saturday, that little boy ran all 6 miles of the church-sponsored 10K to raise money for college scholarships.

I'm calling it a miracle. How about you?
