Will wonders never cease? PDL saves man from gator attack

I got this one from Slice of Laodecia, of a man in Florida attacked by an alligator. In this excerpt the man Rick Cabot, who is the senior pastor of First United Methodist Church in Lutz, Florida, tells his story....

"Shocked, Rick mentally yelled, "I can't believe a gator has got my leg." Yet Rick felt strangely peaceful in the midst of this life-and-death struggle. Instinctively, Rick tried to pry the alligator's jaws off of him.
That's when, according to Rick, his mind drifted back to the book his small group had been studying the night before –
The Purpose Driven Life by Rick Warren. Particularly, he remembered a line from chapter 22 of the book: "God's ultimate goal for your life on earth is not comfort, but character development."

Wow that book is something else ain't it? Once again, as with the young lady in Atlanta, the Purpose Driven Life, not the Word of the living God, pulled them through.
