5 quotes from St Martin de Tours
“What is impossible for man, is possible with God.”
-Luke 18:27
In the year of Our Lord 2024 in Butler, Pennsylvania, presidential-candidate Donald J. Trump turned his head during a speech which saved his life. What had been a kill-shot, merely clipped the right ear of Mr. Trump. Did God "vote" on that sunny day in July?
A mutual miracle happened to George Washington also. Presidential-candidate Dr. Ben Carson tells the story.
"During the French and Indian war, many young couriers relayed messages for the English General, Edward Braddock. At one point, all of the General's couriers had been killed by enemy snipers, except Washington. Meanwhile, Washington watched 2-horses get shot out from beneath him. Over time, he counted a total of 4-musket ball holes in his jacket but still, there were no flesh wounds. Later, he was found to have musket-fragments in his hair; but again, he suffered no flesh wounds. Many years thereafter, a notorious sniper and foe of Washington's, lay dying. This Indian brave was now the weathered-old Chief of his tribe. He asked his braves for one final request.
"Take me to see this man--Washington--I must see him before I die."
Upon arrival, the Chief greeted his enemy respectfully. After civil introductions and polite conversation, he shared his final quest.
"Sir, I have come a long way to meet you. I'm an expert marksman. I shot you 11-times. My men shot you too. Pretty soon I told them to stop wasting their musket balls. I came here, because I just wanted to meet the man who was being protected by the Great Presence above."
Dr. Ben Carson pauses here in the story to switch gears. After a moment, he continues his thoughts.
"That story used to be in all of our history books, until it became politically incorrect. Why was it politically incorrect?--God."
