His unshaved face and pain-filled eyes revealed the agony within him, He had lost his entire family in a plane accident, and now he had no one. Soon the crusade soloist began to sing.

Sobbing in his release, he went with the usher to the prayer tent and gave his heart to God. This'man was able to adjust to his loss and become successful again, this time serving and depending upon the Lord, The'people whom you love and trust sometimes forsake you or are taken from you, but Christ will' never be away from you for even a moment.
