Clayton's Reunion And The News Clip...

 
Colorado Greenhorn Rescue, Survival in the wilderness,

Family Bond

We have many bonds in our lives with many people.
The strongest bond is one of a parent and a child;
And a child with a grandparent.
This is family!

But let us take notice of another family bond;
The Body of Christ;
Where your children, become important to us all!

Children and the Body of Christ is the realization that we
All have a heavenly Father who cares and has a plan for each of us!

God asks us this very question;
Are you not you're brother's keeper?

Our entire family wants to Thank each and every person that lifted up a prayer
That
Was given in our grandsons behalf.

No one found our grandson;
It was only God who led him from the forest.
We were told that this part of the forest is referred to as hell,
Because of its dark and dense conditions.
(REALLY)

The search party was not even looking in the right place on this mountain.
Only God knew where he truly was at every moment of every hour;
Of a 27 hour ordeal!

May we all stop nit picking on those we love; and realize that
most irritations are very small in the grand scheme of things!

Wisdom is not usually lofty and high.
But rather God's command to love one another;
As you love yourself!

Only a few brave ones will lay down their lives for others.
We do this in prayer for others!
We do this with actions by helping others!
Just giving a cup of cold water in His name will bring Him Glory!

Here is the TV news clip of his story!

  3. Roxy, as I was standing in my kitchen this morning making my breakfast this news story came on my local news!! In NC! I just found out yesterday about the ordeal as I had not been on any blogs over the weekend. My heart is just so full of gratitude to God for His protection over your family! Although most of us blogging buds don't know each other personally, we still have a connection through what the Lord has us share on our blogs. I have NO DOUBT that all of the prayers that went out on Clayton's behalf through churches, blogs...however...is the reason for his safe return. Your son's touching account on the news story made me cry...I could personally feel his relief and gratitude as he talked about your kids never getting too old to worry over, as I have one especially that I have cried a million tears over...and he is 35. May God bless you Roxy and your family as you continue to serve Him faithfully. Praise God for His goodness!
