Miracles


Today my father, a logger for more than 35 years fell out of a tree 30 feet off the ground. After he was done removing limbs from the tree he began to propel himself down when the rope tied to his harness came loose causing him to free fall straight down to the ground. His chainsaw hit first and then he landed on top of it. Lucky for him (and us) he just landed on the handlebar and not the blade. He hit back first and then his head. He was unresponsive for a couple of seconds but he came to and was able to walk himself to the car. His back hurts, he has a cut on his face and his front teeth are loose but the EMT says he should be okay. This all could have ended tragically. Miracles really do happen! I am overwhelmed with gratitude that my dad was protected today - I love him so much! Praise God.
