God leads James King to Nadia Bloom

Nadia Bloom, an 11-year-old girl from Winter Springs, Fla., recently became lost in the alligator-filled Lake Jesup forest near her home. Bloom got off of her bike and quickly became lost -- for four days. Rescue teams and the police searched for her, but a man named James King found her -- by following God.

King is quoted in a recent column from The Huffington Post:

Rescue teams searched for days on foot, by helicopter, and with search dogs, but James King, a volunteer and member of Nadia's church, began to pray while searching. On ABC's 'Good Morning America,' King said, 'I prayed and prayed, and God showed me the way. The hardest part of it was getting out of my own way; putting my own thoughts aside and listening to God.' Appearing on NBC's 'Today Show,' King confessed to Meredith Vieira that his wife, Diane King, gave him advice the night before joining the search, 'James, when we lose something we pray in the spirit and we always find it.'

Kudos to King for being open about God leading the way. As you can read in The Huffington Post column, he had plenty of people criticizing him in the national media; King handled their criticism very well.
