What a Wonderful Homecoming!!

Here in Morgantown, WV, this past weekend was Homecoming for the WVU Mountaineers. It was a great game with the Mountaineers beating Mississippi State.

But there was an even better Homecoming here in Morgantown. It was the homecoming of Jacob Allen. For those of you who are not from this area and haven't heard, Jacob is an 18-year-old, severely autistic boy who was hiking with his family last Sunday and got lost. He was in the dense woods for 4 days before he was found, alive and well!! God is so good!! There is no earthly explanation why Jacob should have been found in the great condition he was in. Only God! The homecoming celebration at Chestnut Ridge Church, his home church, was wonderful! It was such a joyous occasion and I felt truly blessed to be a part of it!

The situation with Jacob reminded me once again that God is always faithful and when we think all is lost and we are all alone, God does work miracles and He is always with us!!

Praise God!! And Welcome Home Jacob!!
