Kitten From Heaven
------------------

A Pastor 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 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
"boing!" 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. 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 the Lord 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 Lord 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."
