JESUS & THE MUD PUDDLE



(You gotta believe a 6 year old)






Howard County Sheriff Jerry Marr got a disturbing call


one Saturday afternoon a few months ago.


His 6-year-old grandson, Mikey, had been hit by a car


while fishing in Greentown with his dad.






The father and son were near a bridge


by the Kokomo Reservoir


when a woman lost control of her car,


slid off the bridge and hit Mikey


at a rate of about 50 mph.


Sheriff Marr had seen the results of accidents


like this and feared the worst.


When he got to Saint Joseph Hospital ,


he rushed through the emergency


room to find Mikey conscious and in fairly good spirits.






'Mikey, what happened?' Sheriff Marr asked.


Mikey replied, 'Well, Papaw, I was fishin' with Dad,


and some lady runned me over,


I flew into a mud puddle,


and broke my fishin' pole and I didn't get to catch


no fish!'






As it turned out, the impact propelled Mikey about


500 feet,


over a few trees and an embankment and in


to the middle of a mud puddle.






His only injuries were to his right femur bone,


which had broken in two places.


Mikey had surgery to place pins in his leg.


Otherwise the boy is fine.






Since all the boy could talk about was


that his fishing pole was broken,


the Sheriff went out to Wal-Mart


and bought him a new one while he was in surgery


so he could have it when he came out.


The next day the Sheriff sat with Mikey


to keep him company in the hospital.


Mikey was enjoying his new fishing pole


and talked about when he could go fishing again


as he cast into the trash can.


When they were alone Mikey, just as matter-of-fact, said,


'Papaw, did you know Jesus is real?'






'Well,' the Sheriff replied, a little startled..


'Yes, Jesus is real to all who believe in him


and love him in their hearts.'






'No,' said Mikey. 'I mean Jesus is REALLY real.'






'What do you mean?' asked the Sheriff.






'I know he's real 'cause I saw him,' said Mikey,


still casting into the trash can.






'You did?' said the Sheriff.






'Yep,' said Mikey. 'When that lady runned me over


and broke my fishing pole,


Jesus caught me in his arms


and laid me down in the mud puddle.'






GIVES YOU GLORY BUMPS, DOESN'T IT?!










GOD WILL DO THE REST






I asked the Lord to bless you


As I prayed for you today


To guide you and protect you


As you go along your way






His love is always with you


His promises are true


And when we give Him all our cares






You know He will see us through






So when the road you're traveling on


Seems difficult at best


Just remember I'm here praying


And God will do the rest.






Pass this to people you want God to bless.






FAITH IS NOT BELIEVING THAT GOD CAN....


IT IS KNOWING THAT HE WILL!
