Snake!

When last we met, Paul the Apostle, the crew, and the passengers had jumped overboard and made a swim for their life. And if you will remember, miraculously (and as God had promised), not a single person died. But once they got to shore, they still needed another miracle to save them. They had fought the currents. They had been inundated with with cold weather and bone chilling water. They were exhausted, and they were in need of help as they lay on the shore decimated by weather conditions, circumstances, and extreme measures that had been undertaken to stay alive. People on the island of Malta, found Paul, the crew, and the passengers, and with extraordinary kindess, they cared for them. They gave them shelter, clothing, food, and warmth around the fire. And as the stranded passengers recuprate, Paul the Apostle begins pouring his heart out to them through service. He begins helping the locals gather firewood to warm those who were exhausted and trying to warm themselve by the fire. and it is here that God begins demonstrating once again who He is.
