"Do not give up because there is a God of the impossible here. There is no vice, there is no major disease. Here is the right place to look for you, "said farmer Maria Aparecida de Menezes, 60, who lives with her husband in the rural area of the municipality of Gonzaga, Minas Gerais. Maria provided the 8 children with the best opportunities at their fingertips. However, the desire to explore the world and grow professionally has left the home of parents less and less, leading children to dream of the United States as a gateway to prosperity. The older brother became an example to his brothers when he concludes a seminary and is recognized as a pastor, establishing himself in the country after many difficulties. Seeking to follow the same steps, the youngest decides to travel. Parents are not warned. He would enter the US along the Mexican border, crossing illegally.

"God put his hand. He got lost and fell into a river. The person who did not let him die in the water took him into captivity. It was 6 months without news. I only knew how to cry. He did not eat, he did not drink. What comforted me was watching TV and listening to the Apostle Valdemiro Santiago preach, prayed, put the glass with water and when people least expected my son was released by the mercy of God.

Safe in God Unfortunately, many are dealing with the disappearance of family and friends. Living with the lack of news generates worry and anguish. The miner Maria Aparecida knows well what this is, she exercised her faith, praying even without strength and God preserved the life of her youngest son. Maybe that's your situation. Do not lose hope, the eyes of God are everywhere, and surely see the person who is the cause of their cry.
