We cannot easily imagine what it would be like to be buried beneath a Chilean desert. Those men had to accept they would not survive. How could they possibly escape when the entrance to that shaft was impassable?
But someone up there believed the impossible was possible and so a plan emerged. It would take more than TWO MONTHS to be completed. No one had ever lived that long beneath the surface. The men below and the ones above kept working and believing....and now it is happening! It is so good to see and hear of mankind caring. Hopefully, this will be a message to the world of today that we are our brother's keepers.
We Believers need to remember those about us who are entrapped and buried by their sin. We have at our fingertips and on our lips a plan of rescue. It is not through reform or anything we can do to deserve the rescue. It is a Divine Gift offered through the Son.
"Rescue the perishing. Care for the dying. Snatch them in pity from sin and the grave. Weep o'er the erring one. Lift up the fallen. Tell them of Jesus, the Mighty to save."
