In hiding pt. 12

         It was getting tough. We were able to get some food from Eric's friend but that is almost gone. The bombing has gotten worse and worst of all they found our bunker. I was on night watch and say a light, we got every one out but had to leave. We ran for about 2 miles before we made a very hard decision to split up. Trace took Riley, Nels and Thea and Eric and I took Kori and Juli. Trace took his group toward the city but we took our group up a steep mountain going towards a thick forest. 

          It is hard knowing that Trace, Riley, Nels, and Thea are out there and we don't know if they are captured or not. After we made it up the mountain, I looked for a few minutes to see of they saw us go up the hill and they did. So we started running again in a slightly different course and changed directions many times. Any time we say a cave of some kind we threw a jacket or a sweater in to try and through them of the trail. 

         Finally after about 2 hours of running and walking, we found a place deep in the woods on a hill where we could see if they came after us. It was summer so we didn't have to worry about betting cold, Eric and I took turns keeping watch that night. During the next day we were getting fire wood when we heard beautiful trumpet music and saw a bright light spreading across the whole sky. Then we saw a cloud in the shape of an aplithiater with angels all around the cloud playing trumpets or singing. The four of us were speechless at the beautiful music and then we saw Jesus in the middle of all the angels sitting on His magnificent thrown. And now that I have reflected my past struggles for you it is time for me to leave my mansion in heaven and go enjoy being in God's presence.
