Atlanta
Christian radio station "Praise 97.5" has a daily "Inspiration for the Day" segment on the Melissa Summers' show. She told how a U.S. soldier over in Iraq had asked everyone to pray for an end to the days of sand storms and torrential rains that were hindering their crossing of the Euphrates River. Instead of stopping, as the prayers asked, they only grew more intense. When they finally did stop, he noticed that the intense wind and rain had eroded much of the river's banks. That's when he suddenly saw them. Glinting in the sun. Everywhere. Hundreds of them on the other side of the river. Hundreds of round, metal discs slightly protruding from the sand. Hundreds of deadly land mines that could have killed or maimed scores of our troops. The storm had exposed them so they could be seen, avoided and easily cleared. God always knows best. Always.

Thank God for unanswered prayers ... 2jesus
