I was driving to the grocery store, just thinking of everything on my list to do today.
Taking the kids to soccer practice, cleaning the house, getting groceries, getting the oil changed in the car,.....the list went on and on. I was feeling overwhelmed and was already tired before I had even gotten started. On my way to the store, I saw something horrible happen! A train had run into a car that was crossing the tracks.
I thought "Oh no! This is horrible, there is no way the driver of that car could have lived!"
I was the closest car to the tracks, so I put my car in park and got out. I ran over to the car and looked in, and could not believe what I was seeing. Tears came to my eyes and I just couldn't take it. It was such a sad and heart breaking sight to see.
In the drivers seat of the car was a woman, and she was obviously dead. In the back seat was a baby strapped in her car seat bleeding everywhere. Next to the baby I saw a little girl covered in blood, who I guessed to be about 4 years old.
Just then, the little girl spoke. She said, "Is my Mommy and baby sister okay?" I didn't know what to say, I just looked at her and said, "Honey, I don't know. There is a doctor on his way right now."
Just then the little girl started crying, and she was pleading, "Don't take my Mommy and my baby sister!" She was asking someone to take her......... But who?... And take her where??
I asked the little girl who she was talking to, and she said, "Don't you see? An angel is taking my Mommy and my baby sister! I want to go with them too! My Mommy is waving goodbye to me, she's holding my baby sister and she's smiling!" The little girl was crying because she didn't want to stay. She wanted to go with her Mommy and her baby sister........
I felt SO sorry for her!
At that time I didn't believe in God, and I thought to myself, Where did an angel come from?
What kind of God would take a Mommy and a baby, but not the little sister?
At that moment, I saw the little girl start to smile so big as she held her arms out to something or someone, to pick her up. I thought to myself that she must be delirious, and maybe she's hurt even worse than I thought!
Just then, the little girl closed her eyes and slumped over in her seat. She was dead!
Somehow, I couldn't feel sad, even though this was a 4 year old little girl that had just died.
You wouldn't have felt sad either if you could see that beautiful smile on her face! I guess her Mommy and baby sister came back to get her!
That was also the day that God came to get me.....
That was the day I became a believer and turned my life over to The Living God!
