She had been shopping with her Mom in WalMart. She must have been 6 years old. It was 31 outside. We all stood just 32 the door of the WalMart.
Her voice was so sweet for the 33 waiting.“Mom, let’s run through the rain,” she said.
“What?” Mom asked.
“Let’s run through the rain!” She 34 .
“No, honey. We’ll wait until it 35 down a bit,” Mom replied.
This young child waited about 36 minute and repeated,“Mom, let’s run through the rain.”
“We’ll get soaked if we do,” Mom said.
“No,we won’t, Mom. That’s not what you said this morning,” the young girl said as she
37 her Mom’s arm.
“This morning?When did I say we could run through the rain and not get 38 ?”
“Don’t you remember?When you were talking to Daddy about his cancer, you said,‘If God can get us 39 this, he can get us through anything!’”
The entire crowd became dead silent. I 40 you couldn’t hear anything but the rain. We all stood silently. Mom 41 and thought for a moment about what she would say.
“Honey, you are absolutely right. Let’s run through the rain. If we get wet, maybe we just need 42 ,” Mom said. Then off they ran.
We all stood watching, smiling and laughing as they 43 past the cars. They held their shopping 44 over their heads just in case. They got soaked. But they were 45 by a few who screamed and laughed like children all the 46 to their cars. And yes, I did. I ran. I got wet. I needed washing. Circumstances or people can take away your 47 possessions, they can take away your money, and they can take away your 48 .But no one can ever take away your precious 49 . So, don’t forget to 50 time and take the opportunities to make memories every day!
