If You’re Going to Die By Hanging, You’ll Never Drown

Tonight after the final service at Sierra Bible Church in Reno, a woman came by the book table. While she was writing a check, she said, “If you’re going to die by hanging, you’ll never drown.” I looked up and said, “What was that?” She smiled and said that that was a favorite saying of her father. She hated when she was growing up, but now she understands it as a profound statement regarding God’s sovereignty.

So cheer up, saints of God. If you’re going to die by hanging, you’ll never drown.
