Update on Adam King-He's HOME!

Adam King can personally testify to you today of God's miraculous power - and His mercy. As many of you have heard, Adam King, was involved in a serious car accident early Monday morning. That's when the miracle began! On his way to work at the Bandon Dunes Golf Resort (as a caddy), Adam was in the middle of a conversation with Karissa Horton when he lost control of his vehicle. Karissa figured they lost signal, since this was the part of the highway that they usually have very bad signal on. (Remember that fact)Adam meanwhile went off the road some 20+ feet into a ravine below that was heavily forested, meaning it was almost impossible to know someone had gone off the road. Not a person or witness saw him. Finally regaining consciousness Adam picked up his phone and called Karissa to let her know he was in an accident. Not very coherent, it was just enough information to notify his parents and 911. Both emergency teams and his parents were searching for Adam. It wasn't the Search and Rescue that found him though...it was his mother. Telling her husband where to pull over on the side of the road because it "felt right", as she relayed to me, they peered over a cliff to see the old blue pickup truck. Shouting his name, Adam honked his horn in return to acknowledge it was him.Despite nasty lacerations all over his body, a punctured lung (which caused his breathing to be very shallow), and a close-to-death body, Adam was eventually stabilized and as the CAT scans relayed (while MANY of you were praying) Adam does not have a single broken bone in his body. Praise be to God! Even more amazing is that he doesn't have ANY head trauma. Look at the pictures and see the video and then tell me that God did not have his hand of protection over a should've-been tragic accident. Thanks to many of you who have prayed and called to express your concerns. It was appreciated by the family.His accident was reported on the news.

After seeing the picture of the truck, it is only the hand of God that he is alive.
