?The owner had a much higher offer but insisted on selling the land to me,? he recounted, taking me round his house. He had made a career move from a fairly secure job to a bigger opportunity which went burst, leading him to a major city where he survived using his car as cab and lodge, his degrees in a suitcase back home. By the time we met, he was back and bouncing as head of department, sober, wiser and more grateful to the omnipotent who kept his family intact through the hurricane.

?He brought me up also out of an horrible pit, out of the miry clay, and set my foot upon a rock, and established my goings; And he hath put a new song in my mouth, even praise unto our God: many shall see it, and fear, and shall trust the Lord.? ? Psalm 40: 2-3 (KJV)

The supernatural is beyond explanation.
Let the Son shine in your heart daily.
