Hello Brothers and sisters,
I enjoy building peoples faith so here is a testimony that happened a couple of months ago.
My younger son, the 8 year old, ask one night why people drown when they fall in the water. I explained to him the importance of not panicking, remaining calm and then concentrating on keeping your head above the water. Of course, I went into more detail but not here and now.
The following day after the morning service one of the members wanted to take D.J. (my son) to her house.
This woman is in a wheel chair and instead of her going directly to her house she went down by the frozen over river. As boys tend to do mine wound up a little to close and fell through the ice, he told me later "I remembered what you said about not freakin out, but I couldn't get out of that water, so I said God help me."
Then he said, "Dad it was like a big hand got up under my butt and just pushed me out of that water." Amen
Winter months, frozen river, soaking wet and he didn't even get a sniffle.
Ps. 46:11 The Lord Almighty is with us; the God of Jacob is our fortress.
I pray that many who read these forums will desire to meet and know personally the loving protecting God that we know as Friend, Savior and Father. Amen
