Just got this from a friend at TWR(Trans World Radio). Hope you enjoy this little story if you haven't already heard it.
Sandstorms
I am sure that all of you heard about the sandstorm in Iraq Tuesday and
Wednesday (the worst in 100 years
some say) and the drenching rain that followed the next day. Our troops
were bogged down and couldn't
move effectively.
The media was already wondering if the troops were in a "quagmire" and
dire predictions of gloom and
doom came from the left wing media.
What they didn't report was that yesterday, after the weather had
cleared, the Marine group that was mired
the worst looked out at the plain they were just about to cross. What
did they see? Hundreds if not thousands
of anti-tank and anti-personnel mines had been uncovered by the wind
and
then washed off by the rain. If they had proceeded as planned,
many lives would have undoubtedly been lost.
As it was, they simply drove around them and let the demolition teams
destroy them.
Praises be to His mighty name! Thank you God, for protecting our young
men and women!
One person once asked George Washington if he thought God was on his
side.
His reply is reported to be, "It is not that God should be on our side,
but that we be on His."
P.S. In God we trust!
Wow!
