HIGH HOPES

One Sunday morning, Emmett awoke with a jump! “Glory be to Jesus! Milly, wake up!” He shook Mildred from a dead sleep.

“Are you okay Emmett?” said Mildred very concerned.

“Saints Alive Milly! Saints Alive!”

“Are you having a heart attack Emmett? I’m gonna get the doctor on the line.” Mildred moved to reach for the phone at her bedside.

“No woman! I’m as fit as ever. I had a vision!”

Emmett and Mildred Denard were simple people. They lived a modest life in their little two-bedroom house on a quiet street. Emmett worked as a bus driver while Mildred was a cashier at the local grocery market. Together they went to church every Sunday and bible study Wednesday evenings. They very much loved the Lord.
