Courage, faith sustained miners

I think it was amazing what happened on Wednesday, Oct. 13. The 33 miners were brought to safety. They all had courage, determination, and faith to believe that God would help them find their way to come back to the surface of earth.

They all prayed that they would see their families and friends once again, and they did. God guided them through all those hard, difficult 70 days. I think this moment will be remembered forever in history as a point where people stuck together, never gave up and had courage to face the world. From this moment on, we will all remember that whatever happens, God will help us face our fears, and we will face our fears with God by our side.
