There was an atheist couple who had a child. The couple never told their
daughter anything about the Lord. One night when the little girl was 5 years
old, the parents fought with each other and the dad shot the mom, right in front
of the child. Then, the dad shot himself. The little girl watched it all. She
then was sent to a foster home. The foster mother was a Christian and took the
child to church. On the first day of Sunday School, the foster mother told the
teacher that the girl had never heard of Jesus, and to have patience with her.
The teacher held up a picture of Jesus and said,
"Does anyone know who this is?"
The little girl said, "I do, that's the man who was holding me the night my
parents died."
