"Eight foreign aid workers, including two Americans, were safe in Pakistan Wednesday after being held in Afghanistan for three months by the Taliban for preaching Christianity, U.S. officials said."

Thank God. Praise God. Praise Jesus. This is truly a miracle that only God, working through people, could have accomplished. I have learned over the years that when the very thing happens that you have been praying for that you Thank God For It, acknowledge the answer to prayer, and you DON'T minimize it and say that it just would have happened on its own. I am sure this rescue will prove to be an interesting story in human terms, but it is even more momentous as a miraculous answer to the prayers of millions. Praise God.

This is great news. To be frank, I thought they were gone for sure. My guess is that God still has a lot of use for them on this earth.

"beyond all we can ask or imagine"...I am thankful to God for this outcome, and to those who worked to make it possible.
