“Our good Lord wanted him home NOW.”
Reminds me of the time I was called to the scene of a lightning strike. A man, his wife, and their daughter had taken refuge from a thunderstorm under a tree. Uh-oh. When I got there the wife and daughter were down and in shock but they were going to be OK. Dad had taken a bolt of lightning directly in the right temple and it came out the still-smoking hole in his right foot making a still-smoking hole in the ground as well. I looked at him and immediately thought to myself “God really wanted you back, buddy,”

I'm an outdoorsman, and lightning scares me more than rattlesnakes. Many, many, many years ago I lived in Central Florida, and the lightning there is horrendous. I think it is the lightning capital of the world. Lighting can come out of a blue sky, from a storm 10 miles away and strike you dead.

Do you remember when Lee Trevino was playing in a tournament and as he was swinging his CLUB was hit by lighting? That's another wow story.
