For literally the entire summer, I have been dying to swim with Manta Rays, something I have heard is one of the most thrilling and amazing experiences of a lifetime. And Kona is the perfect place to do it. The only thing that has kept me back was my uneasiness about swimming out and attempting it myself, and my reluctance to pay the large expense for going out to do it on one of the boats (between $75-$100 per person). Of course, I asked God to make it somehow possible for me to do it. And guess what? He answered.
Seriously, it was like He just handed me the tickets to do the Manta Ray snorkel trip just because He wanted me to be happy, He wanted to see me smile and be excited. And I am! After a strange series of "coincidences," (which included a random phone call, a food bank can drive, and the generosity of the owner of Jack's Diving Locker) I somehow ended up with 3 free tickets to do the Manta Ray snorkel dive (worth $100 each). It's pretty awesome to have God on your side. So now, next Monday, Sarah, my sister, and I will be out swimming with beautiful creatures that can be up to 25 ft. in size. Life is good. God is wonderful. Praise Him.
