          @crikcet crazy, I wonder who woke you up this morning? I wonder why you are still breathing? I guess it’s n your on will not God’s. You should be thankful for God’s mercy why you are not consumed. Thank God the man was found alive.

          @crikcet crazy, so you don’t beleive God sent the people to rescue the dude??? Poor you, God knows and sees all and if you don’t believe, you better be right because when your time comes for rescuing, He may be slow in sending help, but when you call on Him, you will see how quick help comes!
