Significant events in life can be pivotal in determining what later happens to a person. Audie Murphy experienced a pivotal moment when he stopped a German army force that would have been disastrous for his fellow soldiers and friends.
Audie Murphy was an adolescent during all the war years he served but nevertheless became the most decorated soldier of World War II. The movie To Hell and Back portrayed Audie Murphy’s courage and humility that locked him into the hearts of those who admired him as a hero.
A pivotal event can be an illness such as the one Hezekiah the King of Judah experienced. The prophet Isaiah told him to put his house in order, for his illness was terminal. Upon hearing those words, Hezekiah turned his head to the wall and in faith prayed to God for help. God responded by giving him fifteen more years to live.
God’s grace is always adequate, regardless of challenges, when we reach out to him in faith and humility.

I
look up to the mountains; does my strength come from mountains? No, my strength
comes from God, who made heaven, and earth, and mountains.
