With 7 people dead, several others injured, and property being destroyed everywhere, the area of Gatlinburg, Tennessee is fully engulfed in chaos. However, one home that recently burnt to the ground has turned a few heads as there was only one thing left standing in the coals – and it’s downright shocking.
The fires in Tennessee are getting far less attention than they should, but it seems that some people are still interested in getting the word out. Perhaps the most interesting tidbit to be released during the recent days is the footage that Kelsey Leyrer and her team captured while driving through Sevier County.
Although the ground was smoldering and homes had fully burnt to the ground, there was just one thing left standing on a quiet and desolated road – a lone statue of Jesus Christ. Covered in ashes and soot, the image has turned into a symbol of hope as God continues to make his presence known.
Of course, news of the latest find has sent yet another shockwave around social media with chills traveling down the spines of many readers. It just goes to show that God is always there, and even though we may not think it at the time, He is most certainly always watching over his creation.
