A little girl walked to and from school.
The weather that morning was questionable and clouds were forming, as she walked to 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 herself feared that the electrical storm might harm her child.
Following each 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.
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.
When the mother’s 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.”
