Sam living on the edge...but having the right answers.

Sweet Sam...
We were driving home from the wedding. (Saturday night late) We had the boy car with Mike and the boys and the girl car with Barb and Katie. Sam thought Mom was going to slow, so he was going to pass her and lead the way. Immediately out of nowhere a Highway Patrol appeared with those cute lights flashing. Mom and Katie pulled over also at the next exit.
Katie knew we needed to pray, for the Highway Patrol to have compassion. She prayed for us. Meanwhile Sam is chatting with the Highway Patrol... he is checking the license, insurance stuff. When the Highway Patrol comes back to the car, he asks Sam if there is any reason why he should not give him a ticket. Sam replys that he is just trying to get home so they can go to church tomorrow. The Patrol asks what church? Sam replys, "The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, We are LDS." Lucky for us the Patrolman was a Mormon also.
No ticket... We counted our blessings and slowed down.
