A UPS driver jumped into action when he spotted an elderly woman injured on the ground, and he is now giving God all the glory. Sadly, because this world is lost and fallen, and sin has and does corrupt everything it encounters, we all experience storms and deep, dark valleys in life. No one is safe from these often painful, heartbreaking situations. However, despite hardships and trials, God is still in control and remains on the throne. UPS Driver Takes A Shortcut And Is In The Right Place To Save A Life Even when bad things happen, God can often be seen loving, protecting and comforting. That was precisely the case when Raheem Cooper, a 30-year-old UPS driver, spotted 78-year-old Marie Coble, who had fallen on the sidewalk, bleeding with grocery bags scattered around her, on one blisteringly hot Valdosta, Georgia, afternoon. RELATED: Parent Rescue Made By Heroic 9-Year-Old Son During Tornado According to the EPOCH Times, it was around 2 p.m. on Aug. 12 when Raheem turned down the road and saw a car door open, with Marie down and injured on the sidewalk. But Raheem should not have even seen Marie. He just took a shortcut that day, which he typically does not do. Raheem told the outlet he heard something tell him to take that alternative route. "It was just God, honestly," Raheem said. "He's got to get all the glory for that. … I was just taking a shortcut, and something just told me to go on her street." Raheem Immediately Dials 911 And Starts Administering Aid Well, after spotting Marie, Raheem immediately rushed to her. In addition to bleeding, Marie was immobile, unable to get up off the sidewalk. Raheem dialed 911, started applying water on Marie and put the grocery bags underneath her to keep her cool and protect her from the hot sidewalk.

The Lord put another person in the right place at the right time. According to USA Today, an unnamed young woman stopped, helped Raheem lift Marie off the hot sidewalk, and placed her against her car until paramedics arrived. First responders soon arrived, put Marie in the ambulance, and rushed her to the hospital. Marie, after a few days in the hospital, was rushed into emergency surgery for bleeding on the brain. She came out of the procedure well and is recovering. Marie’s Father Grateful For Raheem’s Life-Saving, Heroic Actions Kayla Cochran, Marie's granddaughter, is eternally grateful for his love, kindness, and quick-thinking actions. According to The EPOCH Times, she has called Raheem their family's "rock" and "guardian angel" throughout the situation. According to a post on Facebook, she added that if not for Raheem, “she would have died that day.” RELATED: Rescuers Worked Tirelessly And Finally Saved A Toddler Who Fell Into A Well But Raheem did not simply wait for the ambulance and go on his way, forgetting about the woman's life he helped save. Raheem and Marie have developed a bond, becoming like family. He came to see her in the hospital, even bringing his daughter on several occasions. Raheem has been recognized with local and national awards for his heroic, life-saving actions. However, he is quick to deflect praise, placing it where he says it rightfully belongs. Raheem Gives Gold All The Glory "I personally feel like God led me there at the right time and right place," he said. "It wasn't nothing but God." Raheem adds that he simply did what "any decent person would do for somebody."

China and India have reached an agreement to de-escalate tensions at their disputed border region and end a four-year military standoff. According to BBC, the disputed Himalayan border has witnessed violent clashes in recent years. However, the two Asian nations seek to normalize relations as the BRICS Summit in Russia approaches this week. India and China agree to de-escalate border tensions https://t.co/D3UWE6EPTu — BBC News (World) (@BBCWorld) October 21, 2024 Per BBC: Vikram Misri said on Monday the two sides have agreed on “disengagement and resolution of issues in these [border] areas that had arisen in 2020”. He was referring to the Galwan Valley clashes – the first fatal confrontation between the two sides since 1975, in which both sides suffered casualties. Relations between the neighbours have been strained since then. “An agreement has been arrived at on patrolling arrangements along the Line of Actual Control (LAC) in the India-China border areas, leading to disengagement and a resolution of the issues that had arisen in these areas in 2020,” Mr Misri said. Mr Misri, however, did not give any details about the disengagement process and whether it would cover all points of conflict along the disputed border. The Indian foreign secretary’s statement comes just a day before Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi travels to Russia for a meeting of Brics nations which includes Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa. Mr Misri didn’t confirm if a bilateral meeting between Mr Modi and Chinese President Xi Jinping was on the agenda. The BRICS Summit will take place in Kazan, Russia, from October 22 to 24. The event will include the five namesake countries (Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa) and the first meeting for new members: Egypt, Ethiopia, Iran, and the United Arab Emirates.

The conference is intended to present a hefty showcase of economic might but also entice new countries into a coalition Russia hopes to build that would form a new world order not dominated by the West. “This summit is about Putin punching back,” said Alexander Gabuev, director of the Carnegie Russia Eurasia Center in Berlin. Mr. Putin presents his country’s war in Ukraine as “the spearhead of destroying the old world order and helping to build a new one,” Mr. Gabuev said. “And BRICs is the most potent and representative structure of this new world order,” he added. That was a message Mr. Putin emphasized at a meeting of officials and businessmen last week in Moscow ahead of the summit.

(@narrative_hole) October 21, 2024 Reuters reports: Relations between the world’s two most populous nations – both nuclear powers – have been strained since clashes between their troops on the largely undemarcated frontier in the western Himalayas left 20 Indian and four Chinese soldiers dead in 2020. The two sides had since stopped patrolling several points along the border in the Ladakh region to avoid new confrontations, while moving tens of thousands of new troops and military equipment closer to the freezing highlands. “We reached an agreement on patrolling, and with that we have gone back to where the situation was in 2020 and we can say … the disengagement process with China has been completed,” Indian Foreign Minister Subrahmanyam Jaishankar said at a NDTV media conclave. The “understanding was reached only today,” he said, adding: “We always said that if you disturb the peace and tranquillity how can the rest of the relationship go forward?” To avoid clashes, the two militaries will patrol contested points along the border according to an agreed schedule, a senior Indian military officer aware of the details told Reuters.
