Many prayed for their safe rescue. When it happened and they emerged, it was a moment of joy for people all over the world. God bless them.
Miners Clad in Jesus Shirts Give Glory to God
Fri, Oct. 15 2010 01:13 PM EDT - When the 33 trapped miners in Chile emerged from underground, at least two dozen of them were wearing T-shirts that proclaimed "Gracias Senor," or "Thank you Lord." Christian Maureira, national director of Campus Crusade for Christ in Chile, who helped provide the shirts, said the miners wanted to recognize and thank God publicly as the world watched the anticipated rescue this week...
"Thank you for this tremendous blessing for me and my coworkers. It will be good for our spiritual edification. I am fine because Christ lives in me," Henriquez, who is part of a Pentecostal church, wrote. He also quoted the Old Testament passage Psalms 95:4 – "In His hand are the depths of the earth, and the mountain peaks belong to Him." That passage was printed on the back of the T-shirts that a majority of the miners wore as they were pulled out to safety this week.
