Here You Go! Thoughts from Greg Howell
Thursday, 6 December 2007
Psalm 23

There was a video story on MSN today about an attempted robbery of a 92 year old woman in Tennessee.  When she got into her car following a shopping spree at Wal-Mart, a man jumped into the passenger seat next to her.  He claimed to have a gun and demanded that the woman hand over all of her money or he would shoot her.

 She said, "No."

The woman, it turns out, is a devout person who spends time each day reading the Bible.  Three times she refused to give in to the man's threats, and finally she told him, "Just as fast as you shoot me, I'll go to heaven, and you will go to hell.  Jesus is in this car with me, and he goes with me everywhere I go."

The robber looked around a little bit, thought about what she said, and began to cry.  The woman talked to him for ten minutes about what he was doing with his life, and how God could help him.

Finally, he told her he would go home that night and pray.  She said, "You can pray anywhere at anytime.  You don't have to wait until nighttime."

The woman took $10 from her purse and willingly gave it to the man, who thanked her, then kissed her on the cheek and left her car, walking away.
