Better Watch What You Pray For!

The Cat From God!

A true story about a pastor and his experience.

He had a kitten that climbed up a tree in his backyard and then was afraid to come down. The

pastor coaxed, offered warm milk, etc. The kitty 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 to the

tree 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

little bit further, the tree would be bent sufficiently for him to reach the kitten. But as

he moved a little further forward....the rope broke. The tree went "bong!" 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'd 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 on about

his business.

A few days later he was at the grocery store, and met one of his church members. He happened

to look into 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 are you 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 ask 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 its paws spread out, and

landed right in front of her."
