Tale of Two Angels

Tale of two angels who lived in a poor neighborhood who thought nothing would work but God knew it would. Everyday they woke up to nothing no food, no water, no new clothes but no one knew but only God knows. Their mother prayed everynight to the Lord on the thrown, wishing all her tears and troubles would one day be gone. She did the best she could all that she could to raise her beautiful daughters on her own and everyday this is what she told them. "I gave you wings to fly and a mouth to confess and never tell a lie. I gave you lungs and air to breathe I gave you a shoulder to lean on when you couldn't beat the speed." One Christmas Eve, the girls were bored so their friends invited them to a church. Instead of having nothing to do, in the church they did discover who... they discovered a youth meeting being held in the back of the church. They walked into the room just as steady as they pleased, they sat down on their knees and listened to what their was left to say, which made them quite pleased. They went home after the sermon, went to their room, got on their knees and began to cry, they sat on the floor in her time of weakness and dispare to think and wonder how much their mother really cared. Shouting out to the Lord, they did scream their love for God had grown every stitch and seam. "Lord she has done so much to provide for us now can you hold her hand and stand beside us. Christmas is not about presents, it's about celebrating your birthday, your name its not about growing up in fortune and fame. Lord you are God and we know you will provide but I pray this pray to the heavenly father that sits on his thrown in the sky." They prayed this prayer over and over again until there was nothing left to hear except for the sound of the wind. The next morning they woke up to find a tree full of presents, a table with breakfast already made, and a dinner being prepared as if for a hundred slaves. The family rejoiced because God would always make a way when things were going wrong a way was made out of no way. He started with little and everything multiplied they rejoiced so much their praises did reach the sky. It started to rain "Don't worry child, Jesus is crying and rejoicing to because we are so blessed to have two little angels like you."
