Now You Know the Rest of the Story
Outline of a figure in the clouds
Evil eagle on right shoulder
Angel archer behind aiming at the evil bird...
When we are unaware, an angel is always there
Following to protect from harm
How many times a day does things not go your way?
If they had happened as you wished,
Doom would have been your fate.
Praise God it is not too late
Praise Him for the Angels unaware!
Once long years ago, our son-in-law
Was late coming to pick up the grandson
We had to go to classes at Mercer in Macon
My husband was just so upset....
We was running about ten minutes late
When we got to a place where there was
An old homeplace with two huge oak trees..
Which were right on the edge of the road
There was a traffic backup and we had to wait.
I am thinking there must have been a wreck
No not a wreck ~~One of those trees had been blown over
It lay across the road where if we had been there maybe ten minutes earlier
Well! You know the rest of the story.....
(Andrea, the first part is what I saw in the clouds)
