News out of Australia has been pretty grim for the last year and a half, so this absolutely fantastic news is a welcome change of pace:

A three-year-old boy missing for three days over the weekend in Australia was found alive in thick, mountainous bushland on Sept. 6.

Anthony "AJ" Elfalak was reunited with his family after being spotted by a rescue helicopter, half a kilometre from his home, sitting in a creek drinking water with his hands.

He had been missing from the rural property in the Hunter Valley region of New South Wales from 11.45 a.m. on Sept. 2.

A child missing for three days is awful enough. That he was missing in the Australian bush makes his recovery nothing short of a wonderful miracle.

God is good.
