GREAT STORY!
"''I just thank God for Phillip,'' the mother said. ``We would not be here but for the grace of God and the courage of my son.''
STOP! Just stop for one minute and hear the profound elegance of this mother. Yes, Phillip is a true hero. So is this woman who instilled in him faith, hope and love.
Maybe someone was listning...I'm in Natchitoches, about 4 hours North of New Orleans and they've cancelled all the public schools today. The school buses are being used to transport evacuees. Please continue to pray for these poor families.
I was thinking more like the future director of FEMA.
This story brought a tear to my eye.
And over in N.O., 13 year old boys are running around with guns, shooting at people and raping girls...
A PTL BTTT
Not accurate to call him a "little boy", he became a man this past weekend.
And he is more of a man than ANY of the animals in N.O., and that includes the N.O. Govenor AND Je$$e Jacka$$ and Al Sharpton!
That young MAN is a natural born LEADER, and if he is NOT nurtured and provided the means to BECOME the leader he can be, then woe to this Country!
Were it within my means, I would ENSURE that he completes his journey to become a most EXEMPLARY man!
Thanks for posting this wonderful story.
We could all use a little good news.
Thanks for his story.
Let's hope it doesn't go downhill from here for him and his family.
Bump for a wonderful story. I wish this boy's dreams for his future to come true.
Great kid, absolutely great.
That's just a great idea!
I thought so.
They're better than tents and would be easier to manage.
Though I wonder how many will be absorbed by churches, family and such. Maybe that's better in the long run.
BTTT for those that might have missed this wonderful story.
This should cheer up some of you.
This is one heck of a MAN.
I wish we were hearing more stories like this.
God bless him, his family and especially the parent(s) that raised such a strong young man.
BUMP!
Maybe it was Gov Jeb Bush? I emailed him as soon as I posted my idea. I asked if maybe he could ask some of other Govs down there to suspend school for a day and make a caravan of their school buss to go save those poor suffering people.
Everyone keep praying for the people. They need our prayers.
