A Secret Boat Saved His Life
Manage episode 341595803 series 3323121
It still seemed like a normal business day on the island of Okinawa for Tim's grandfather. His family had previously fled to the main land because of the war, but he missed them very much. A friend spontaneously told him, "there is a secret boat that leaves our island tonight. Why don't you take it and go to the main land to visit your wife and children? You haven't seen them for so long." So he left his store and took the secret boat a couple of hours later.
Little did Tim's grandfather know that that very night, Japan's WWII opponents would start a devastating bombing attack on Okinawa and entirely level the city and his business. His store was completely destroyed, but his life got saved in miraculous ways.
This story is just one of many that Tim Aka shares during this episode. His grandmother's marvelous ways of doing business, his father's journey as an Adventist pioneer in Japan and his brother's life-changing work as a medical missionary are many others.
