Here's a little story that someone posted on a NeoPets Guild that I happen to be a part of. It's so cute that I felt like sharing it here.
Kitten From Heaven
Dwight Nelson recently told a true story about a pastor of his church.
He had a kitten that climbed up his tree in his backyard and then was afraid to come down. The pastor coaxed, offered warm milk, etc. The kitten would not come down. The tree was not sturdy enough to climb, so the pastor decided that if he tied a rope to his car and drove away so that the tree bent down, he could then reach up and get the kitten. He did all this checking his progress in the car frequently, then figured if he went just a bit further, the tree would be bent sufficiently for him to reach the kitten. But as he moved a bit further forward, the rope broke. The tree went "boing!" and the kitten instantly sailed through the air out of sight.
The pastor felt terrible. He walked all over the neighborhood asking people if they had seen a little kitten. No. Nobody had seen a stray kitten. So he prayed, "Lord, I just commit this kitten to your keeping" and went about his buisness.
A few days later he was at the grocery store and met one of his church members. He happened to look in her shopping cart and was amazed to see cat food. Now this woman was a cat hater and everyone knew it, so he asked her why she was buying cat food when you hate cats so much? She replied "You won't believe this" and told him how her little girl had been begging her for a cat, but she kept refusing. Then a few days before, the child had begged again, so the Mom finally told her little girl, "Well if God gives you a cat, I'll let you keep it!" She told the pastor, "I watched my child go out in the yard, get on her knees and asked God for a cat. And really, pastor, you won't believe this, but I saw it with my own eyes. A kitten suddenly came flying out of the blue sky, with his paws outspread and landed right in front of her."
Kind of gives you that warm fuzzy comfy feeling inside, doesn't it?
