God Protect Us

A teenage girl about 17 had gone to

visit some friends one evening and

time passed quickly as each shared

their various experiences of the

past year.

She ended up staying longer than

planned, and had to walk home alone.

She wasn't afraid because it was a

small town and she lived only a few

blocks away.

As she walked along under the tall elm

trees , Diane asked God to keep her

safe from harm and danger.

When she reached the alley, which was

a short cut 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 lineup 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 Diane for her

bravery and asked if there was

anything they could do for her.

She asked if they would ask the man

one question.

Diane 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."

PS: God is always there in your heart

and loves you no matter what.....and

if you stand up 4 him he will stand up for you.
