.=:=::=~;:= V my whole life. I was about twelve years old at the time ~ ~ " and thought that I was pretty smart. I believed in God 7~ but He seemedto be so far away. I was sure that He hardly noticed me anyway. Well, this miracle that I want to tell you about taught me differently. I grew up in the country close to a small town. Every Sunday, people for miles around would gather at the little community church to hear the preachertell them about .t God and a lot of other things. Once in a while, however, an evangelistwould come to give the sermon, and boy could he raisethe roof when he got going! We kids ~~ thought that he was so funny becausehe was always praising God and saying, "Hallelujah!" Wheneverwe boys saw him we would whisper to each other, "Oh, oh! Here , comes 01' Hallelujah again!" It seemedthat no matter what happened he always praised the Lord. yI,~\..~,M
