It was raining outside. We all stood near the door of the  41 , waiting. Suddenly I heard a 
sweet voice. “Mom, let’s  42 the rain,” said a six-year-old girl, with beautiful red hair, who had been shopping with her mum in Wal-mart. 
“What? No, honey. We’ll __43__until it stops raining so hard,” the mother replied.The girl waited about one minute and repeated, “Mom, let’s run through the rain.”
“We’ll  44  if we do,” the mother said. “No, we won’t, mom. That’s not what you said this morning,” the young girl said as she   45  out of her mom’s arm.
“This morning?” “Yes, when you were talking to Daddy about his cancer, you said, ‘If God can get us through this, he can get us through anything!’”
