God Still Does Miracles!

The next time you doubt God's ability and desire to bring you through something, remember this true story reported by Breaking Christian News. God has not quit the miracle business, especially to those with child like faith.

Pawhuska, Oklahoma)—Sometime between midnight and 1:30 in the morning on October 3, Tracy (Ali) Tuller, 23-month-old daughter of Shanna and Robert Tuller, crawled out of her bed and slipped out her parents' home outside of town.

"That night was my birthday, and my husband and I put the children to bed and stayed up late in the living room. When I went to check on the kids at 1:30 that morning before we went to bed, Ali wasn't in bed," said Shanna. "We have five children, and three of them were at home that night. We woke up the two boys, and frantically searched the house. She just wasn't anywhere."

Within minutes of calling 911, scores of people were combing the area for Ali. According to a report in the Pawhuska Journal Capital the search lasted until nearly 4 a.m., when a rescue worker named Gibbie Gibson found the little girl standing in the middle of a pond about a mile from her home.

"He walked out to get her, and the water was well up past his waist," said Shanna. "When he got to her, though, the water wasn't even up to her waist, and she wasn't standing on anything. It had to have been God holding her up. Gibbie was in shock when he saw it, and really had no explanation other than a miracle."

Not only that, but throughout the night searchers also reportedly came across two cougars, a pack of coyotes, and even killed a copper head snake. According to the report, everybody—except Ali—was muddy, scratched up, and wet from the big storm that rolled through the area.

"She went out without her shoes on, walked all that distance, and even had to cross two barbed wire fences to get to where they found her," said Shanna, who was convinced "there had to be at least 60 or 70 people out searching for her that night, and after it was all over, they were all in worse shape than Ali. My daughter wasn't even scared; she was just out for a walk."

"There is not a doubt in my mind that God was with her, watching over her that night," continued Shanna. "God must have a special purpose for Ali. Our only guess as to why Ali was in the pond is that God must have put her there to keep her away from the cougars. I hope this story touches people, because it has certainly touched our lives. There is a God out there, and He is watching over all of us. God was definitely with Ali that night."
