[:en]On Sept 11, 2001, Stanley Praimnath was working on the 81st floor of the World Trade Center South Tower when he saw an airplane flying directly toward him. Stanley prayed an emergency prayer as he dove under a desk for protection : “Lord, I cannot do this. You take over!” Stanley was trapped behind a wall of debris. But as he prayed and cried for help, Brian Clark, a worker from another office heard and responded. The two found their way down 80 flights of stairs to the ground floor and out.
David also encountered terrible threats. He asked God for help saying: “Be my rock of refuge, to which I can always go… Do not be far from me, my God’ come quickly, God, to help me” (Ps. 71:3. 12)
We will also face difficult situation in life. But we can be confident that God hears our prayers and will be with us to help and deliver us. Remember: He is our refuge and strength, an ever present help in times of trouble. (Ps. 46:1)
