Fran's Treasures
"Gods Grace"



A drunken man in an Oldsmobile

they said had run the light.

That caused the six-car pileup

on 109 that night.

When broken bodies lay about

and blood was everywhere,

The sirens screamed out eulogies,

for death was in the air.

A mother, trapped inside her car,

was heard above the noise,

Her plaintive plea near split the air,

"Oh, God, please spare my boys!"

She fought to loose her pinned hands,

she struggled to get free,

But mangled metal held her fast

in grim captivity.

Her frightened eyes then focused

on where the back seat once had been,

But all she saw was broken glass and

two children's seats crushed in.

Her twins were nowhere to be seen,

she did not hear them cry,

And then she prayed they'd been thrown free,

"Oh, God, don't let them die!

Then firemen came and cut her loose,

but when they searched the back,

They found therein no little boys,

but the seat belts were intact.

They thought the woman had gone mad

and was traveling alone,

But when they turned to question her,

they discovered she was gone.

Policemen saw her running wild

and screaming above the noise

In beseeching supplication,

"Please help me find my boys!"

"They're four years old and wear blue shirts,

their jeans are blue to match."

One cop spoke up, "They're in my car,

and they don't have a scratch."

"They said their daddy put them there,

and gave them each a cone,

"Then told them both to wait for Mom

to come and take them home."

"I've searched the area high and low,

but I can't find their dad."

"He must have fled the scene,

I guess, and that is very bad."

The mother hugged the twins and said,

while wiping at a tear,

"He could not flee the scene, you see,

for he's been dead a year."

The cop just looked confused and asked,

"Now, how can that be true?

"The boys said, "Mommy, Daddy came

and left a kiss for you."

"He told us not to worry

and that you would be all right,

"And then he put us in this car with

the pretty, flashing light.

"We wanted him to stay with us,

because we miss him so,

"But Mommy, he just hugged us tight

and said he had to go."

"He said someday we'd understand

and told us not to fuss,

"And he said to tell you, Mommy,

"He's watching over us."

The mother knew without a doubt

that what they spoke was true,

For she recalled their dad's last words,

" I will watch over you."

The fireman's notes could not explain

the twisted, mangled car,

And how the three of them escaped

without a single scar.

But on the cop's report was scribed,

in print so very fine,

"An angel walked the beat tonight on Highway 109."






This morning when the Lord opened a window to Heaven, He saw me, and

He asked: "My child, what is your greatest wish for today?" I responded:



"Lord please, take care of the person

Who is reading this message, their family and their special friends.

They deserve it and I love them very much."



The love of God is like the ocean, you can see its beginning,

but not its end.   . . .  A Joyous Christmas through Christ!
Malachi 3:3 says: 'He will sit as a refiner and purifier of silver.'

This verse puzzled some women in a Bible study and they
wondered what this statement meant about the character and
nature of God.

One of the women offered to find out the process of refining
silver and get back to the group at their next Bible Study.

That week, the woman called a silversmith and made an
appointment to watch him at work. She didn't mention
anything about the reason for her interest beyond her curiosity
about the process of refining Silver.

As she watched the silversmith, he held a piece of silver over
the fire and let it heat up. He explained that in refining silver,
one needed to hold the silver in the middle of the fire where
the flames were hottest as to burn away all the impurities..

The woman thought about God holding us in such a hot spot;
then she thought again about the verse that says:  'He sits as
a refiner and purifier of silver...'  She asked the silversmith if it
was true that he had to sit there in front of the fire the whole
time.

The man answered that yes, he not only had to sit there holding
the silver, but he had to keep his eyes on the silver the entire
time it was in the fire. If the silver was left a moment too long in the flames, it would be
destroyed.

The woman was silent for a moment. Then she asked the
silversmith, 'How do you know when the silver is fully refined?'

He smiled at her and answered, 'Oh, that's easy -- when I see
my image in it.'

If today you are feeling the heat of the fire , remember that God
has his eye on you and will keep watching you until He sees His
image in you.

Pass this on right now. This very moment, someone needs to know that God is watching
over them and that whatever they're going through, they'll be a better person in the end.


She will do him good and not evil all the days of her life. Proverbs 31:12 Be Blessed and
Be a Blessing because the best is yet to come!
