Did you hear Nick Wallenda Praise God and call on HIM, constantly, when he did his walk across the grand Canyon? We all heard and it and all glory and Honor goes to Jesus for His Undying Love for HIS believers.We heard it and prayed with Nick to the Lord our God. What a beautiful example ofTrust! What a Witness to HIM!
