Addison Logan, 13, probably wouldn’t have gone to the garage sale Thursday if he hadn’t broken his arm in a dirt bike accident a couple of weeks ago.

He probably would have been riding the bike.

Instead, Addison, who likes garage sales, was driving around to some of them with his grandmother, Lois Logan, in west Wichita. After three stops, he finally found something he wanted to buy. It was an old Polaroid camera at a house about a mile away from his grandmother’s house. He thought the camera was “pretty cool,” he said. He bought it for $1.

Back at his grandmother’s house, Addison got on the Internet to find out how to take a picture with it. When he removed the cartridge and opened it, he found an old photograph inside. He took the photo to his grandmother.

Lois Logan said she looked at the photo and saw her son, Scott, who died in an auto accident 23 years ago.

Good stories like that do not come around very often, thanks for posting.

I agree! Thanks for posting this amazing story, Forgiven. Even though it is full of religious superstition, the very fact of finding that photo makes it worth the read. But how sad that the family should have so little knowledge of God that they would have the beliefs they do! Sadly, they are no different than many people these days.

The greatest treasure we can have is to be able to go to be with Jesus in Heaven.

A picture is nothing but a dead image. When we have family that passes away that know Jesus as Lord and Saviour we know we will be re-united with them and we do not grieve their loss like the pagans do.

To me that story is very sad.

Our treasures should be stored in heaven and not here on the earth.
