Watching a 5yr old girl being buried...

Saturday June 23rd, I eye witnessed a precious 5yr old  girl's lifeless body being placed in a body bag by police men in Santa Ana after being hit by a car and immediately passing away. I didn't know the family but i instantly KNEW i had to reach out to help, in any way i could.Her mother and 6yr old sister were hit also, and were rushed immediately to the hospital and barely survived. That was 13 days ago.

From day one, on June 23rd, I was steppinng out in faith, praying for a miracle for the precious 5yr old girl. Believing and  praying for the impossible-that God would breath life into her lifeless body and wake her up from the dead. for 13 days a few of my friends and i prayd in faith for this, with all of our heart! Exercising my faith on a whole new level than ever before.I heard word that her viewing ceremony was last night, so i showed up at 5pm and stayed until 11pm when they closed the building and the family/loved ones left also.For those 6hrs i prayed with all of  my heart, mind and soul. From the beginning, God gave a few of my friends and i favor.We were introduced to the father, little sister (she has miraculously  healed since being hit by a car 13days ago!) and aunt right away. Hundreds of people were there. My friends and i were the ONLY white people there too. There was a Catholic service and then a Christian service.The aunt of the little girl being viewed in her casket came up to my friend and i as we were seated in the back of the building and asked us to come up to the microphone for 15min to pray for everyone/share!!! Wow, what an invitation! She didn't know us either!So i said "yes, i will" and then started sweating and getting nervous, praying for God to give me the right words for a crowd of grieving people.I had 2 minutes before i was to go up.

I get up to the front of the room, and begin to share the Gospel and speak of faith. Asking people to get on their knees!!! These words and this courage is ONLY from God. I am still in shock! Shared that God loves us and is close to the broken hearted.That He desires a personal relationship with ALL of us and desires no one to perish. A few children came up to the front and got on their knees praying. Child-like faith! It was beautiful.PEOPLE WERE ON THEIR KNEES IN REPENTANCE! I SAW PEOPLE ASKING FOR FORGIVENESS FROM GOD FOR THEIR SINS! GOD DID MIRACLES! HE RESURRECTED MANY SPIRITUALLY LAST NIGHT!! THANK YOU JESUS!!! Before i came up and spoke, i had an opportunity to pray over the body of the girl with her family, a very special yet heart breaking moment. (i boldly asked him if i could touch her hand and pray over her, and he said yes!)Again, was taking a leap of faith, believing that God could heal her if that was HIS plan for her life. Nothing happened, but the father was SO appreciative of our faith and prayers and compassion. he and the family kept thanking us. Later that evening, around 60 people got on their knees and prayed and weeped.

For the 6hrs i was there, God DID do miraculous things. Even though the ONE thing i was praying for the most didn't happen, He did SO many other things.The 33yr old woman who hit the 2 girls and the mom on June 23rd was a blonde haired white woman. She was under the influence and also ran a red light and tried to escape after the hit.So me...being a white, blonde haired 32yr old woman...up in front of hundreds of hispanic men, women and children, weeping over the girl.....had bigger influence than i know. I didn't want to leave when they kicked everyone out at 11pm. I wanted to keep praying over  her. I did not want to accept that she wasn't going to be raised from the dead.But i have to remember that His ways are not our ways and His thoughts are not our thoughts.

Today i attended the mass/funeral ceremony.Hundreds attended.Saw the family and told them i was praying for them. Saw them weeping with sorrow.Followed everyone over to the graveyard where we placed carnations on her casket...

 and watched them place her into the ground and  had the tractors cover her with dirt. Then it really hit me....this was the end of her life here on earth=5yrs. I was told that before she was hit crossing the street, she had given her father a bible and inside the bible she placed a picture of a traffic light that she had drawn.This 5yr old girl had shared God's love and truth with her own dad....

Fighting the tears back again right now....i know without faith we can not please God. I know God was pleased of our faith, even though what we prayed for wasn't answered.But i do believe God is resurrecting  the Santa Ana community through this tragic event.Hundreds, maybe even thousands, heard the Gospel a few times last night and today. They were faced with the reality of life, death and Eternity. I will not let this cause me to doubt and decrease my faith. I pray that this experience will only strengthen my faith.When i woke up this morning, Satan kept trying to tell me i was a fool for praying in faith -"oh look, you prayed for something and it didn't happen, how foolish! You should be embarrassed!" But i know Satan is an accuser and liar. Oh LORD, send your healing, comfort touch to the father and little sister. And to the mother who is still in critical condition at the hospital....my heart goes out to them...thank you all for your faith and prayers and support....   <3

Hebrews 11:6  "And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him."
