There was one time when I needed God the most..... it happened about the time I was 4 or5. My mom decided that we should go to the beach with my aunty thresia and discussed it with us. We were very excited when we heard of this.When we got there we all started unpacking our stuff and put on sunscreen. We were all having fun until my cousin's toy boat that he let me play with drifted off deeper in the ocean. I started to cry and my mom told me to stay with aunty and that she'd go and retrieve my boat. Obviosly any parent would know that a childs instinct when he is told to stay or is given an order, is to do the opposite. Well little me thought I should go with mommy and get my boat. In the ocean there is orange and white floating things that give you limits to where you should not go any further, for example in (exodus 19:12) it says, ''Put limits for the people around the mountain and tell them, 'Be careful that you do not go up the mountain or touch the foot of it. Whoever touches the mountain shall surely be put to death.'' In this case its not a mountain, justopen blue waters with no one else on the beach. My little boat crossed the limit and so did my little body. I suddenly slipped over the edge in the ocean, I didnt know how to swim so I paniced and started to drown. I was drowning in the ocean and my mom was screaming because she didnt know how to swim eather. My arms grew tired of struggling to stay up and I started sinking under water and sucking in the black water. My mom soon sunk under water too, and my aunt was screaming to the top of her lungs for help! But remember, we were there alone so no one heard our plee for help, in the bible god mentioned in (2 samuel 10:11) that I will come to rescue you, and he kept that promise. Out of nowhere two fairly older men dove under the water and grasped me and tossed me out of the water to the other man, who took me to shore then came my mom too. I coughed out a lot of black water but caught my breath my mom held me and was crying. We turned to tell the men thank you but to our surprise they werent there! They were gone! And though I was very young I knew that God had just sent angles to come to my RESCUE , and from that day forward I put my faith in God Kknowing that that is a sign that the God I worship is REAL!!!
