Grave Robbery!

Hello everyone.  Praise the Lord!

In 1705, there was a woman in Ireland named Marjorie McCall. She had been praying for two young men, who lived down the road, next to their little village. She was praying for their salvation. 


But one day Marjorie got sick and caught an illness. She had a very high fever and soon died.  Her family was afraid that her illness would spread to the townspeople, so they buried her very quickly in the village cemetery.  

A few days later two grave robbers came to dig up the newly buried corpse, to see if there is anything of value in the coffin.  The dug out Marjorie's grave, opened up a coffin, and to their surprise and joy discovered her wedding ring was  still on her finger.


They tried and tried to pull the ring off but her finger was too swollen, and the ring would not come off! So they decided to cut the ring off! The person was dead, so they thought, what would it matter?

As they maneuvered the arm out of the coffin, so that they can cut the finger off, Marjorie started moaning and moving!  The two grave robbers saw this, and was terrified, and quickly ran away.  It appears that Marjorie was not dead after all,  but was just in a coma from the illness!

Marjorie got out of the coffin and slowly walked back to her home. She knocked on the door, her husband and children were inside the little house. Her husband said if it wasn't because we just buried your mother, I would swore that was her knock! He opened the door and saw his "dead" wife standing there!

It took a few more weeks for Marjorie to recover from her illness. But when she did, she went straight to church and found out those two young grave robbers had been saved and sanctified.  Her prayers had been answered!

Marjorie lived a long life afterwards, and even had another child. Seeing your prayers answered, and in your presence, is very exciting but you gotta be careful what you're pray for!
