On February 5, 2019, a very, very, large wooden cross washed ashore on Ft. Lauderdale Beach to the delight of beach-goers. It was 20 foot long, barnacle encrusted and looked like it could have been made from railroad ties.
According to the South Florida Sun Sentinel, Mary Ann Smolinski, visiting from Michigan said, “It’s amazing. Very spiritual.” Not long after the tales about how the cross washed ashore and the possibility of its spiritual meaning were heard everywhere. Some say it was probably from Puerto Rico due to last year’s hurricanes while others believe it is a spiritual sign. One man was so moved by the cross as a sign that he called his friend and said he was going back to church.
Today the cross now lays behind the Ocean Manor Beach Resort where it took ten men and two ATV’s to pull it ashore. WSVN reported “Ocean Manor resort Owner Frank Talerico told WSVN he had goosebumps when he learned of the cross and believed it was a sign of protection. He said his sister had been praying at the property that morning after having a bad dream.”
Have you received a sign? What was it? Remember, it is what you do with the sign that matters! So stay alert, read the Word, and pray!
