Prayer on the way to the peak

The plan was to hike the tallest mountain in Maine. But when my friends and I got out of our cars on that summer afternoon, we could hear strong winds blowing through the trees and saw clouds covering the top of the mountain. Because of the weather, we decided to hike a smaller peak in the park, but to increase the challenge, we chose to run up the mountain.

Since God was governing me, nothing else such as pain could be present in me.

During the run uphill, I was climbing a rock on a steep incline and didn’t see the tree in front of me. I hit my head really hard on a tree limb that was about 18 inches in diameter. I had to lie down on the rock to collect myself. I was in a lot of pain, and I was having trouble seeing.
