‘What a miracle’

From East Carolina-

Power of prayer is an important thing, no matter when or where.

Many prayers were offered this past week for the safe return of a little boy who got lost in the woods.

By now, 3-year-old Casey Hathaway’s story is known by folks from coast to coast about the search effort that, let’s face it, was made scary because of Tuesday’s frigid temperatures and some of the monsoon rains that poured across Eastern North Carolina on Thursday. This nightmarish scenario for the family was something everyone understood when hoping for a miracle.

For two and a half days, people refused to give up hope or stop praying for the boy’s safe return.
Perhaps God heard those prayers loud and clear.

“I think the power of the prayer is incredibly important,” said Reverend Paul Canady of Christ Episcopal Church of New Bern. “My belief is that in God, hearing our prayers is a reminder to ourselves that God is at work in what is going on in both the joyous and the tragic.”
