"I believe the Lord sent us both together…"

Angela Montez will be the first one to tell you she was "scared and crying," during a recent robbery, but police and others say she was very brave.

I am glad this worked out for this lady and nobody was harmed.
But I believe, for future reference, someone should tell her.... Even though this method worked this time, the old tried and true method of pumping bullets into rodders has a far greater percentage of effectiveness.

LMAO! Although I know you meant to say "roBBers," I couldn't help myself but to imagine someone using a pump (much like a gas pump) to "pump" bullets into a robber's body...

It's Friday...I have permission to feel odd right now...;-)

I think it worked because this woman cried out to God. He is still in the miracle making business. This was a miracle in the making.

I am glad it worked.
Believe me, I would have given him time to say his prayers. Then sent him to his maker via Glock.

Pinging my Brothers and Sisters in the Lord and Dear FRiends to See a Most Wonderful Video! Our Savior Thwarted a Robbery, and Intervened in the Life of the Young Man who was Committing it; may God's Hand be over this Man in Awesome Ways in the Days to Come, and over the Young Lady who was our Lord's Instrument to Touch the Man's Heart.

Thank you So Much for this Post, MsLady!

There have been other stories similar to this one. It’s a testament to the difference God can make in any given situation in our lives, if we are willing to turn to Him.

I pray for this young man, the young woman, and their families.

The unfortunate thing is that not everyone will turn to God, and some people are attacked, harmed, and even killed because of their belief in Him.

All of us are “only passing through” this short life on earth regardless of the length of our stay here. The most important thing,of course, is to live our lives according to His will and way to ensure eternal life with Him, ‘no matter, come what may’.

Amen to your Posts on MsLady's Thread about how our Lord Thwarted the Robbery and Intervened in the Life of the Young Man who was Feeling Hopeless and Desperate. That Awesome Video will be in my Heart for a Long Time; it's So Wonderful to See our Lord Bare His Holy Arm of Power and Begin to Change Someone's Life. With you, I'll be Praying for the Young Man in the Coming Days when he Comes to Mind.

Thank you Again for the Excellent Thread, MsLady, and Praises to our Lord of Mercy and Grace!

(((((((God's Blessings to All)))))))
