Adela Rogers St. Johns recounts a 1944 Christmas season moment of divine guidance. She describes waking at 3:15 and praying for her son Mac, then finding a Bible verse that urged calm and salvation. Mac later confirms a minefield warning saved his platoon, a sign she interprets as God guiding their family.
