Brendan McElroy Wrestling with an under toe

One of the scariest moments of my life was when I was swimming in the ocean. The ocean is one of my favorite places to be because I love swimming and just relaxing, and there is no better place to do both of those. But when the current gets rough, and there is a strong under toe, it can get scary. There was one time, where I had to depend on the life in the ocean, to keep me safe. The waves were crashing down hard, and I found myself getting dragged further and further from the beach. And the harder I fought, the more tired I got, and the further I got. I found myself scared, but I knew there was a way I could get out of it. And I found myself praying, and waiting for my chance. Needless to say, the seas calmed for a few minutes, and the under toe got less rough, and I was able to swim my way in. But what was truly amazing was that I prayed hard so that I would be saved, and my prayer was answered. And the ocean calmed and I was able to be safe. I was protected by the ocean.
