Synopsis

33 miners trapped 2400 feet below the Atacama Desert in Northern Chile for 69 days in 2010 and the hundreds of rescuers working 24 hours each day all believed that it was God's hand that brought these men to the surface. The details of the rescue and the details of their prayers and praise to God are what this book is about.It was by God's hand that the rescuers continued drilling until contact was made day 17. It was by God's hand that a rare rainstorm occurred just a few days before the day 17 contact was made in this the driest desert on earth. This created a flowering desert which gave the rescuers and family members on site hope.It was by God's hand that the NASA officials on site for the rescue could view the night sky in a place where astronomers come from all over the world due to the clarity of vision in this desolation. The Epilogue of this book details God's hand in the rescue of 18 miners trapped underground at the Quecreek Mine in Somerset, Pennsylvania in July of 2002.9 of the men were trapped for 3 1/2 days. At one point the water raised up to their necks until the massive pumping effort started to reduce the level. It was by God's hand that one of the drilling companies at Quecreek, sent two men and the drill to Chile to assist the rescue effort there.

From the Inside Flap

With God all things are possible. (Matthew 19:26 KJV).

We live in God's world, but we do not in the least know it as it is. We are very much in the position of a color-blind man in a beautiful flower garden. All around him are glorious colors; but he sees only blacks, whites, and grays. If we suppose him to be also devoid of the sense of smell, we shall see what a very small part of the glory of the garden exists for him. Yet it is all there, if he could but sense it.

Outside we find the 'marred image' showing limitation, sin, sickness and in harmony ... but underneath is he masterwork of the Great Artist, and our prayers act by clearing away the false accretions ... so that the already existing Truth and harmony may appear.

The goal of this book is best summarized by Emmet Fox:

The butterfly lived for what seemed to him a very long time as a humble caterpillar. Then one day the little caterpillar finds certain strange stirrings going on within himself. The old green leaf, for some reason, no longer seems sufficient. He becomes moody and discontented. He feels the need for a bigger, finer, and more interesting life. And so the wonderful thing happens; the butterfly emerges beautiful, graceful, now endowed with wings, and instead of crawling about on a restricted leaf, he soars above the trees, above the forest itself—free, unrestricted, his own True Self.
