I have to brag just a bit- it is my right as a proud little sis! Many of you heard on the news about the house fire in Garner Friday night, 2 small children were left inside when the trucks arrived. Matthew & his co-worker Greg went in, found the children, & brought them out. He doesn't like the spotlight, but a hero deserves a little credit! He puts his life on the line everyday & I guess we take it for granted at times. He's been fighting fire since he was just a young teenager, but in the past 13 years since he has been full time it has been tough listening to some of the stories he tells. Those boys have lots of fun, but when the siren goes off they are all business & what they do saves lives & makes a difference. He has asked us to pray for those 2 small children & their recovery as they are in critical condition.
Here's a short clip from the news story on WTVD- that's my big brother!

ReplyDeleteHow thankful we all are that those precious children are still recovering. God sent them protectors during a tragedy. Now pray that they will grow to know their true protector.
