Red Mountain Rescue
"Bear ye one another's burdens, and so fulfil the law of Christ." - Galatians 6:2 (KJV)
In February 2025, a father and his 12-year-old son became stranded on a cliff in Utah's Red Mountain area. As temperatures dropped, they stumbled upon a backpack left by a hiker weeks earlier. Inside were emergency supplies—water, food, and blankets—that sustained them until rescuers arrived. The backpack had been abandoned by Levi Dittmann, a teen who had also been stranded in the same area but left the pack behind to lighten his load during his rescue. Levi later expressed gratitude that his loss became someone else's lifeline.
This story reminds us of our Christian responsibility to help others with the resources God has given us. Just as Levi's supplies saved lives, we are called to share what we have to rescue those in need—spiritually, emotionally, or physically.
When God rescues us from our trials, it is not just for our benefit but also so we can assist others. Whether it's sharing wisdom from our experiences, offering material aid, or extending compassion, our actions can become a lifeline for someone else. Let us remember that helping others fulfills God's law of love.
Application: Reflect on how you can use your blessings to support others in their struggles. Like Levi’s backpack, what you offer may be exactly what someone needs for their rescue.
