This was written by a friend of mine about her experience with guns and evil in the world. You might pass this on to any who have the heebie-jeebies about having guns in their home.
Over 20 years ago, a single young woman was home alone. It was
around 1 in the morning. She was awakened by noises coming from her front door.
She quickly got up, grabbed her shot gun, and headed for the door. She waited,
listening intently, when the door knob shook from the outside, and she heard
something being wedged into the crack of the door. She shook with fear, but was
more fearful of the person who was trying to break into her home... HER HOME!
She became righteously angry, and pumped that shotgun shell into the chamber.
It was loud, and she was right by the front door. The noise and the shaking of
the door knob abruptly stopped! Her heart had been racing, then she began to
hear footsteps pound the pavement. She looked out the window beside the front door,
and saw a man running away! She tried to call the police... NO DIAL TONE! The
wire had been cut (cell phones were not so prevalent, then). She sat in the living room of her home, trying to breathe again,
thanking God that she had purchased that shot gun (and that semi-auto rifle,
many years ago, to plink around at targets with friends). The intruder
obviously was scared off... by the loud sound of that pump shot gun!
Thankfully, the woman was not kidnapped, raped, murdered, tortured, or.... who
knows what other things could have happened, if the intruder had gotten in! She
was safe!
I know this woman... she is now happily married, is a mom to 5
beautiful kids. She loves her family, her friends, her country, and GOD.
This woman is ME! I thank God for His protection, and for the thought in my head
to buy those guns to begin with. (And yes, when I first became a mom, I bought into the idea of
keeping the idea of guns away from my little son. That didn't last long! He,
and his brother, and their sisters are well versed in gun safety, and how to
shoot!)
Thanks for sharing, Jori!
