Sometimes God Says Yes & No

This from AP...

Clara Jean Brown was worried. She was at home on Memorial Day, but she knew her family was still at the beach when a bad storm kicked up in their small Alabama town. From the dry safety of her kitchen, Clara began to pray. She prayed for the safety of her family. And she prayed that her grandkids (and could anyone named Clara be anything but a grandma?) would be able to get back home without incident.

Just a she said, "Amen," Clara was pounded to the floor by a tremendous blast of pressure and flame. It was a lightening strike -- from across the street! -- that traveled through the water pipes and blasted through Clara's home.

The good news? Clara's family was safe and sound, after all.

(Clara came through fine, too.)
