Ping.
Thank you. Considering the ice storm we’re having here, I may or may not be able to get to church tomorrow.
I believe this biblical passage was used in the John Ford movie, "Three Godfathers," starring John Wayne. It happened when the Wayne character was in a desert cave dying of thirst with a baby in his care. He lost all hope and tossed a Bible to the ground. The wind flipped the Bible pages until it came upon the page with the passage above (if I remember correctly). At that moment, a donkey appeared at the opening of the cave and Wayne rode it with the baby into a nearby town, thus saving themselves.
BTW, quite a good movie.
Thanks Pastor. Just listened to the Lutheran Hour a few minutes ago. I have National Guard drill this weekend, so those two sermons will have to do as my service.
