It seemed like an almost literal answer to their prayers. When two New Zealand pilots ran out of fuel in a microlight airplane they offered prayers and were able to make an emergency landing in a field � coming to rest right next to a sign reading, "Jesus is Lord."

I don't think the story means anything in particular, but I just thought it was kinda funny.

Or to some, it could mean everything. Coming to rest next to a "Jesus" sign after praying for their lives pretty much when they ran out of fuel, to some that would be enough to be a sign, not me though, I just think its a funny story too...but a good thing that they are alive and ok !
