Hello ,

During heavy thunderstorms in south China last weekend, a one-year-old baby apparently went looking for his mother by a window. According to reports coming out of China's media, two local men on the street below noticed the child's unsafe position and anticipated his fall. A man so far identified as Mr. Li, an "ordinary" street vendor, only had his bare hands and one chance, but the guy was in the right place at the right time with a willing heart and he made the remarkable catch. 

Mr. Li said, "I didn't think too much at the time. I was just afraid of failing to catch him." *

What extraordinary things can ordinary people accomplish when they merely show up and are willing to get involved?  I'm sure this baby's mother is thankful that someone was nearby, and was willing to step in on behalf of her child.  (The picture above is a "freeze-frame" snapshot of this amazing catch).

What might God have in store for you today?  It might not even seem extraordinary, but if we're committed to His kingdom He can use that willingness,and do amazing things through us.

Have a great day and God bless!
