In riveting heart-wrenching scenes seen in videos depicting the human devastation left behind by catastrophic Hurricane Helene, surely it is this one that transcends them all. It is the story of a little boy, 7-year-old Micah, whose mother Meghan Drye told us “called out for Jesus to save him” when flood waters ripped him out of her loving, protective arms.

“Save me Jesus” is the indelible cry of the soul when imminent death comes to call. It was the cry of Micah, who was tragically swept away by floods that struck Asheville, North Carolina, on Friday.
We can only imagine the terror that struck their hearts when the floodwater rose high enough to force Mrs. Drye with her son and her parents to the roof of their home for safety, before the flood became so powerful it broke the home apart.
However, the flood became so powerful that it broke the home apart.
It was at that very moment, Mrs. Drye said that her son called for Jesus to save him.
The story was reported, not by any major media outlet, but by FoxWeather.com.
The words of Micah’s grief-stricken mother will live in our hearts forever. The words of Micah are now, even in our sorrow, immortal:
In the wake of the storm, Micah’s story truly transcends them all.
In a world where the media gloatingly tells us that the abortion-advocating Democrat Party is poised to win the upcoming Election— echoed in last night’s J.D. Vance/Tim Walz CBS debate, Democrat VP nominee Tim Walz insisted that abortion is a right and not the wanton murder of babies in the womb—a 7-year-old boy did no less than to bring God Almighty back into the Public Square.
At the very moment of our death, Christ appears before to all who die.
Fr. William Saunders: “Each man receives his eternal retribution in his immortal soul at the very moment of his death, in a particular judgment that refers his life to Christ: either entrance into the blessedness of Heaven — through purification or immediately, — or immediate and everlasting damnation” (No. 1022).”
There is no doubt that through all our tears, little Micah is looking down on us from Heaven.
In a world putrified by the propaganda that killing babies in their mother’s womb is acceptable, one little boy who knew otherwise reached out to the same Person Whom we should all reach out to, and, in effect, dried our tears of sorrow.
In a world where government leaders work to stomp out all things good and decent, steadfast prayers to Almighty God will save our souls.
