Eric joins the team for the first time this year, and during one of our devotional times, he had an interesting encounter.

There Are No Accidents
On Wednesday, 4/29, Kaji, Jeff, James and I had the opportunity to meet D. He shared that he was looking for Craig, our team leader. He heard about us after Craig responded to D.’s broadcast email request for Katrina carpool support. D. shared that he had not been able to work on his construction site (which is across the street from where we are working) due to lower back pain. We had a chance to talk about wanting to make a difference and our respective relationships with God.
We got to pray for D., including how much God’s loves us and how nothing can separate us from His love. We also prayed that God would alleviate or heal his back pain if it was His will.
We saw D. at breakfast and at his construction site this morning. God healed his back pain enough so that he could work and accomplish what he came to do in Biloxi.
We thank God for answering our prayers for healing and to be an encouragement to others. We know that there are no accidents, including this chance to meet D. and share a little from our lives.
The Lord helps the fallen and lifts up those bent beneath their loads (Psalm 145:14).
