My Daughter Saved a Life this Christmas!
 
I can't go into too much detail for the sake of confidentiality, but while we were at my sister's in Indiana this week for Christmas, Ashley got a phone call from a 19 year old girl in another state who told her that she had just swallowed a whole bottle of pills! She was very lethargic and unresponsive, but Ashley was able to find out what city she was in and prayed with her over the phone. She called the local 911 and they somehow got in touch with 911 in that city, got an ambulance to her and got her to the hospital to pump her stomach.

Her family had no idea this was all going on, because no one could reach them. When the police finally called Ashley back and told her the girl would live, we all were rejoicing and so thankful that God had intervened and given her this opportunity to help. The girl has called her a couple of times since then to let her know that she is trying to find hope in Jesus, and get her life together.:santathumb

Where would I be
You only know
So glad you see
thru eyes of love
A hopeless case
an empty place
IF NOT FOR GRACE

That is what living a christian example is all about.

There are friends and co-workers of all of us (the Christian family) when they need help or a miracle they turn to our faith.

This is a great example of living a Christian example...
