True Story

During this last week we had a lot of ice and snow.  4 days of the Courthouse & schools being closed is very unusual for this part of the world.  Snow drifts made traveling on country roads almost impossible.

A county road worker was using a backhoe to remove the drifts to make the roads passable and found a pickup stuck in the road.  There was no one around it.  He decided to go on down the road, instead of backing up.  When he topped the hill he found an elderly man sitting in the road.  He got him in the backhoe to help warm him.  He had on a windbreaker with no lining.  He said he thought he was going to die.  He knew he couldn't walk any further, couldn't get his pickup out, and probably no one would come down the road to help him.

God sent an angel to that little man that day.
