9/16/2018 0 Comments Let Go and Let GodShort StoryLet Go and Let God is the true story of Charles Arnold, a WWII US Naval Aviator and his mother whose faith helped bring him home safely. Few today understand the real meaning of faith and fewer yet are willing to place their sorrows and troubles in the hands of a divine being that many find it necessary to attack. The story does not pretend to prove or disprove the existence of a divine being, but rather explain how faith serves those who possess it, to help them endure hardships that would break seemingly stronger individuals. Jane Arnold, the aviator’s mother, had long endured hardships that might have destroyed others. As an eight year old girl living in a cabin somewhere in the territorial wilderness that we call North Dakota today, she often had to endure long, lonely nights with wild beasts at her door. Those experience, rather than breaking her, steeled her with faith, a faith that helped her endure the agony of being a parent with five sons serving during World War II.
