Another Breath-Taking Moment

(POSTED BY BUD REED)

I was over in Tulsa the other day helping some "American" Touch A Life Kids, when George called from Golden Village. He put Isaac on the phone.

Remember Isaac? He's the little guy we rescued off Akigogomi Island in Lake Volta early this past September. Isaac is an orphan who was sold into slavery by his dying mom. He's from the Nfanti tribe and could only speak that dialect when he arrived at Golden Village.



Well, Isaac got on the phone and in incredibly plain ENGLISH said, "GOD IS GRACIOUS TO THE UPRIGHT! AMEN! I AND THE FATHER ARE ONE! JOHN 10:30! AMEN!"

Wow!

Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take but by the MOMENTS THAT TAKE OUR BREATH AWAY!

This little guy and some of his buddies rescued earlier are being taught memory verses by Kofi Kennedy, boys' dean at Golden Village. The boys were to recite them in church the next night.

IF IT WERE NOT FOR YOU AND COUTLESS OTHERS WHO CARE, ISAAC WOULD EITHER HAVE BEEN DIVING UNDER THE DARK WATERS OF LAKE VOLTA OR FEARFULLY WAITING FOR HIS TURN. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR HELPING ISAAC AND HIS FRIENDS.
