He was only a little guy at this time, only about a year old.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p xml:lang=\"EN-US\">It was a cold day, so\u00a0I bundled him up in his heavy coat and warm hat, and put his\u00a0hood up.<\/p>\n<p xml:lang=\"EN-US\">I stepped outside my door with him\u00a0in my arms and I started walking to my car. Before I knew it, I was on the ground. I\u00a0had slipped on black\u00a0ice and down I went, baby and all.<\/p>\n<p xml:lang=\"EN-US\">When I hit the ground I heard no crying. There was no noise at all. All I saw was my grandson in my arms looking up at me. I panicked and started to yell for my husband. It was my yelling that scared the little guy, and of course he started to cry.<\/p>\n<p xml:lang=\"EN-US\">My husband came quickly and carried him in the house. I was so upset, thinking he had been hurt, only to find out there was not a scratch, bump or bruise on him. He was laughing with Granddaddy as he checked him over.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p xml:lang=\"EN-US\">My arms were wrapped around him so tightly, that when we\u00a0hit the ground\u00a0we hit arms first, and he was protected.<\/p>\n<p xml:lang=\"EN-US\">Yes, it was shocking, because it all happened so suddenly. But we were both fine. Praise be to God!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p xml:lang=\"EN-US\">This reminds me of\u00a0how God&#8217;s\u00a0mercy is like my arms around that child, so tightly, holding him up\u00a0so he wouldn\u2019t get hurt or hit hard.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p xml:lang=\"EN-US\">Let us give Him praise today for His precious arms of &#8220;Mercy&#8221; holding us up from time to time!! Amen.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p xml:lang=\"EN-US\">Psalm 103:8 (NKJV) 8 The Lord is merciful and gracious, Slow to anger, and abounding in mercy.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p xml:lang=\"EN-US\">Pastor Curt &amp; Pastor Ellie<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p xml:lang=\"EN-US\">Seven Seas Ministries<br \/>\nP.O.
