I just finished writing the story about a Coast Guard helicopter pilot who “met” God during a historic ocean rescue. In 90 mph winds he maneuvered his 10-ton helo to rescue a father and son from a sinking troller. After a career of rescuing others, this commander realized he needed a Savior too. One day he simply took his hands off the controls of his life, and Jesus took over.

Telling his life story reminds me to stop fighting God over the “controls” of my own life. He knows where I’m going. He navigates better than I.

The story should be out in a few weeks, published in a book produced by Good Catch Publishing.
