What a moment! Wish we all could have been there in person but I know we all were there in spirit!
Believe it or not I have worn 2 St. Michael's Medallions on a necklace for 17 years. I didn't realize how long until just now. My husband and I are on a WWII Team that honors veterans and he made a static line jump from a C-47 at an event. I was wearing a one silver & one gold St. Michael's because he is the patron saint of Paratroopers. He and another team member each had a bad exit out the door, were tangled in lines coming down and my husband broke 3 ribs and our friend broke his leg. In the emergency room 2 skydivers who'd heard about the accident on the radio from another nearby location rushed in to check on our men. One of them stopped me in the ER looking for them and as I updated him that injuries were minor he stared at my St. Michael's medallions and said, "St. Michael was with them today! Good thing you had on 2 medals!" I was so anxious about the accident that I forgot I was wearing them. It was a profound moment. I was shaken to my core as waves of gratitude washed over me when I realized how God is ALWAYS with us! That was November 2004...17 years ago! No coinkedinks.
Yes, He is! I got quite emotional when I posted this because remembering the powerful emotions, being frightened, grateful & amazed, all at the same time. But it really hit me when I asked my husband what year it was last night and we figured 17 years! Godwink! 🙌

We are here for a reason.
