DYERSBURG, Tenn. - A 92-year old grandmother from Dyersburg talked a would-be robber out of taking her money, by praying with him.

Pauline Jacobi just finished putting her groceries in her car, when a man got into her passenger seat.

That man told Jacobi he had a gun, and he would shoot her if she didn't give him all her money.

The spunky 92-year old said no, and then she started talking with the would-be robber.

"I said Jesus is in this car and he goes with me everywhere I go. He just looked around and the tears just began coming down his eyes," Jacobi said.

Jacobi talked with the man for several more minutes. Then he said he was going to go home and pray.

The grandmother then willing gave him all the money she had on her, which was $10.

This is a great story, I read others like it but it was a home invasions.
God is good hopefully he met Jesus and turned his life around.

As for granny, God bless her.
 
One of the girls in my youth group told me about this story... I was in shock! It reminded me of a story I heard a few years ago.

Remember when that book "My purpose driven life" came out? Well down here a young lady, about 24 years old, was in her apartment alone when I big muscular man broke in to rape her. Before he could harm her, she started talking to him about that book and what she read. She talked to him for 3 hours! Then she offered for the man to use her shower to wash up as he had been out all day. While he was in the shower, she called the police. WOW God is so good- He protects His people!
 
This is a great story, thanks for sharing. This is a great example of true genuine faith no matter what the circumstances are. You do not need to "freak out", worry or assume the worst. Just have faith in Jesus and leave the rest to Him.
 
That is a great story. Another example of how if you just put your trust in God he shall deliver. Just remember when in doubt trust in the Lord.

Sounds like granny doesn't fear anything but God, lol

God Bless
