It came in a dream

Showing his scar

Before a single bomb fell in his village in 2011, Peter (nor real name) had a dream that bombers were coming.  Incredulous, his neighbours did not believe him but he decided to move.  The bombings came soon after.  A cement building nearby was struck and started a bush fire that spread throughout the area.  

God, in His grace had warned one of His children of the impending disaster.  There have been many miraculous stories of His grace in terrible situations.

Peter now is studying theological education and hopes to graduate soon.  Though the future in many ways is still uncertain for him, our Father will likely continue to whisper into his ears directives for him to follow.

Will we also have the courage to hear His still small voice and obey when we hear it?  Though the subsequent running in the bush from continuous bombings has left him a visible scar on his shin, it also serves as a reminder to me of God's mercy in sending His word ahead of time to His children.
