The fire had been burning for a while and the barrel was hot. Walking towards the barrel, I stumbled and fell towards the fire. I know it was only for a brief moment, but I was playing different scenarios over in my head. It appeared that I was going to hit the barrel with my face. I reasoned that I could push of the barrel with my hands to protect my face. Could I use just one hand or would that not give me enough distance? As the thoughts were running through my head, I shouted out, \u201cHelp me Lord!\u201d I felt hands, made out of a blast of wind, grab me and stand me upright.<\/p>\n<p>It is time for those of us who have experienced miracles to share. I cannot tell you the theology of what I believed or did not believe when I asked for the Lord\u2019s help. Cannot tell who will believe or who will try to explain it away calling it a fable.
