MILLIONS OF PEOPLE MISSING ALL OVER THE WORLD
writes, "10 days ago millions of people from all over the Earth came up missing. No one seems to know what happened with the exception of leading scientists in many different countries whom most agree because of the thousands of sightings of different UFO's and strange phenomenon appearing all over the globe, came to a conclusion that beings and aircraft from another world has invaded and taken certain people. It is reported none of the bars and taverns were effected and most Churches were only missing some of their members while reportedly some of the Preachers were still holding services seemingly unaware of anything unusual.
So evidently nothing happened on a Spiritual basis. Many aircraft fell out of the sky, and after locating the black boxes it seemed the pilots were in a normal conversation with ground control when all of a sudden their conversing ended in the middle of a sentence.
There were millions of automobile crashes where all of a sudden the driver and some of the occupants were just disappeared.
Some husbands and wives came home from playing ball or having a girls night out only to find their spouses were gone. Another strange item of interest is, it seems children from infant to the age of 11 or 12 also became missing.
Hollywood seemed to have escaped the strange happening as only a few came up missing.
Thank goodness a leader in the world came forth with a plan to calm the world. First he convinced every country to lay down their arms and cease all wars for at least 42 months. So there could be world peace.
After that happened he dealt with the world economy by suggesting we all become citizens of the world and he created a new method for buying and selling. What he did made sense. We will all be issued credits in our own personal accounts which will be stored in a chip and implanted in one of two places on our body.
Then he called upon all of the religions of the world to come together and start praying to the Supreme Being, so regardless of whom your god is we could all find common ground.
Thank goodness there will no longer be different denominations and beliefs as we are all the children of one god. More reports as they come in…………….

LOVE- the greatest of these gifts
writes, "Elvis' cousin', Billy Smith shared the following story on his Elvis Fans Matter YouTube channel.
"One day the two were riding in Elvis' limousine when they passed an old colored gentleman and his wife who were trying to push their truck full of wood that had broken down.
Seeing people in need, Elvis stopped and pulled up behind them to offer help.
Elvis, who had not been recognized by the couple, offered to push the truck with his limousine.
But it didn't quite work out, so he went out and offered the old man a ride, which was warmly received.
He then took him to the Oakley Ford car dealership in Memphis.
Billy recalled, “He bought this guy a new truck and I thought that old man was going to faint. I couldn't believe it!”
As he signed the papers for the truck, the car salesman said, "Mr. Presley, is there anything else?"
And then that old man realized who had been so nice to him. But the generosity didn't end there.
Elvis told the old man to drive his new truck to his old truck, where he would meet him there.
He and Billy then helped him move the wood from the old truck to the new one.

THE BIG GUY!
writes, "“My mother said I weighed 18 or 20lbs from the start, the biggest baby she ever saw. I was deformed as a boy. I had a big stomach and a big rear and little shoulders.”

- Primo Carnera

Primo Carnera, nicknamed the Ambling Alp, was an Italian professional boxer and wrestler who reigned as the boxing World Heavyweight Champion from 29 June 1933 to 14 June 1934. He won more fights by knockout than any other heavyweight champion in boxing history.

Carnera was the third European to hold the world heavyweight championship after Bob Fitzsimmons and Max Schmeling. He would be the last until Ingemar Johansson claimed the title against Floyd Patterson in 1959, over a quarter of a century later.

Carnera was also the first boxer to win the European Heavyweight title and subsequently become World Heavyweight champion.

Only a little girl
writes, "
A Child's View of Thunderstorms

A little girl walked to and from school daily. Though the weather that morning was questionable and clouds were forming, she made her daily trek to school. As the afternoon progressed, the winds whipped up, along with lightning.
The mother of the little girl felt concerned that her daughter would be frightened as she walked home from school.
She also feared the electrical storm might harm her child. Full of concern, the mother got into her car and quickly drove
along the route to her child's school. As she did, she saw her little girl walking along.
At each flash of lightning, the child would stop, look up, and smile.
More lightning followed quickly and with each, the little girl would look at the streak of light and smile.
When the mother drew up beside the child, she lowered the window and called,
"What are you doing?"
The child answered,
"I am trying to look pretty because God keeps taking my picture."
"

Read carefully
writes, "What if you woke up in the middle of the night and reached over to put your arm around your spouse and there was nothing but a neatly laid out pair of pajamas? Than you ran through your home looking for her and you discovered your children are missing to and just their PJ's were neatly laid out. Then you start remembering in the middle of the night you heard this shout, but it didn't wake you up. Make sure what you believe is right, for there could be hell to pay if you are wrong. Salvation and Grace is a wonderful thing. "
