Soon afterwards, another boat brought David’s sailboat to the boat ramp. David even had an extra life jacket that he tied on the sinking mast so it would not be lost to the bottom of the lake. Reality was that David and Greta were fine. As they were preparing to go out, a couple of pontoons were near the sinking sailboat and within minutes we could see David on one of the boats with Greta holding court in the middle of the boat.Īll kinds of scenarios went through my head none became reality. There were divers, EMT, several boats and lots of wonderful people. Within ten minutes, there were about 12 rescue vehicles from three townships, the state police, and the state park service. Fortunately, I had a rational thought and called 911. My first irrational thought was to swim out and rescue them. All of a sudden, I saw the mast go over into the water, and then the boat. I sat in a comfortable chair in the shade on shore, watching the boat slowly drift across the lake. David, my husband who loves boats and is a very experienced sailor, took his 14 foot Ghost sailboat out on Swartzwood Lake – with the dog. If it had not been the Lord who was on our sideĢ if it had not been the Lord who was on our side,ģ then they would have swallowed us up alive,Ĥ then the flood would have swept us away,
You reconcile and heal you overcome death.
You empower us to be your gospel in the world. You have revealed and proved your love for us in Jesus Christ, who lived and died and rose again. You, O God, are infinitely generous, good beyond all measure. Your purpose overarches everything we do. O Lord, open my lips and my mouth shall declare your praise.
