I'm not one to just post random things but i got chills after reading this..

a girl went to a party in Sexy clothes and she ended up staying longer than planned, her boyfriend got drunk and passed out and she had to walk home alone. She wasn't afraid because it was a small town and she lived only a few blocks away around the corner of bellflower and artesia. As she walked along passing "7 eleven" Mary asked God to keep her safe from harm and danger. When she reached the alley, which was shortcut to her house, she decided to take it. However, halfway down the alley she noticed a man standing at the end as though he were waiting for her. She became uneasy and began to pray,asking for God's protection. Instantly a comforting feeling of quietness and security wrapped round her, she felt as though someone was walking with her. When she reached the end of the alley,she walked right past the man and arrived home safely.The following day, she read in the newspaper that a young girl had been raped in the same alley just twenty minutes after she had been there. Feeling overwhelmed by this tragedy and the fact that it could have been her, she began to weep. Thanking the Lord for her safety and to help this young woman, she decided to go to the police station. She felt she could recognize the man, so she told them her story.The police asked her if she would be willing to look at a line up to see if she could identify him. She agreed and immediately pointed out the man she had seen in the alley the night before. When the man was told he had been identified, he immediately broke down and confessed. The officer thanked Mary for her bravery and asked if there was anything they could do for her. She asked if they would ask the man one question. Mary was curious as to why he had not attacked her. When the policeman asked him, he answered, "Because she wasn't alone. She had two tall men walking on either side of her." Amazingly, whether you believe or not,you're never alone. Did you know that 98% of teenagers will not stand up for God?

WOW that is great, I can't help but think of times that he has protected me. Our GOD is amazing, it would be scary if we could see the spirtual battles that go on around us and GOD is always faithful to protect us.
I love you,
Mom
