Minutes after takeoff, the right engine on his vintage plane failed, causing it to spin and dive over 200 feet and crash on the shoulder of I-95 in Florida. Miraculously no one on the ground was injured. The fuselage was completed destroyed, the cockpit obliterated. And yet, even more miraculously, all the pilot suffered was a broken arm and leg and a few cuts and bruises.
He stated this morning that this has put things in perspective. Before he was an agnostic, but after seeing the pictures of the scene he couldn't help but acknowledge "some help from above."
I'm glad we don't all have to survive a plummet from the sky to meet HIM here on earth. However, I hope Robert Robertson does not take this for granted, develops his faith, and shares his story of a second chance at this life given by the ONE that gives and takes away.
