TWO TRUE MIRACLES….read on!

Sunday, December 11th, 2011

Consider this: You are the last person rescued from a collapsed building after you have been trapped for 27 hours, under concrete and steel under a stairwell. Then a hand reaches out and holds you for several minutes until three men show up to pull you out. This hand belongs to a man who was never at the scene of the rescue or a member of any staff!

Genelle Guzman-Mcmillan was coming down the stairs from the 64th floor of the World Trade Center on September 11, 2001 when the building collapsed around the 13th floor and 90 floors of concrete and steel fell on her, trapping her under that stairwell. Miraculously she was still breathing.

For 27 hours, no one knew she was there. Raised in a large family which went to mass on Sunday, yet a child of the clubs and party scene, she had put God on the top shelf – out of reach. Yet now, facing eternal loss and despair, Genelle knew enough of Where God was and His Power to save, to cry out to Him!

Rendered immobile and in unbelievable pain, Genelle prayed the following in order:
Lord, let my body be found
Lord, HELP ME
Lord, send me a Miracle

Then the Voice told her to hold, because she will be alright as the rescuers were almost there to get her out! Not just that, but as the Hand held her, all the fear and pain from her body was gone…as she lay trapped under the dust, steel and concrete. The Voice said his name was Paul!

Minutes later, two New York firefighters with Canadian canine rescue specialist removed Genelle and rushed her to

HOW WOULD YOUR OBITUARY READ?

If you have been checking your local newspaper recently, the increasing amount of  young people dying is stunning. Men and women, from all ages from 50 and under, are moving on to eternity in rapid fire. They are dying from accidents; cancer or heart disease. In the cities, urban violence is claiming untold youth.

But what is really disconcerting, more than the scary increase in youthful deaths, is the content of their obituaries! I have been following the daily Obits in the paper for the past couple years and the content of these people’s lives is stunning!

Here is just a sample of a few obituaries. These are more than local samples. These are representative of a national culture, mindset and soul, which have lost their way!
“He was an avid poker fan; loved fishing; playing videos games and his guitar….”
“He loved hanging out with his buddies; hunting; fishing and tattoos…..”
“She was a sorority sister; loved life, animals and was very giving…”
“She cared about her cats; loved bingo and cared about people (in that order)…”
“He loved his Cubbies; NASCAR and going to the BRICKYARD 400 every year…”
