God Saved a Life

by Austin

One man's life was saved today, as he was on his way to commit suicide. David had walked all the way from 183rd St. in the Bronx to 28th St. in Manhattan. He hadn't eaten in 4 days or slept in 3 days since he found out that his ex-wife took his 4 children to the Dominican Republic and left no way to get in touch with them. After his long walk, he was a half block from where he had a stored gun. With no hope of reuniting with his children and being rejected at 3 hospitals, he was ready to end his life. Thankfully God intervened and used us at the Relief Bus to help. We were able to pray with him and then call a local hospital where they were willing to admit him to get the help that he needed. God continues to use the Bus as a refuge for those in a time of need.
