The family of a Marine veteran miraculously found a Bible stuck in a fence post in an area of North Carolina that was devastated by Hurricane Helen. According to his family, the Bible was open to the Book of Revelation, a sign from God.
Hurricane Helen pummeled western North Carolina in late September with devastating rain. One of the areas devastated by Hurricane Helen was the town of Old Fort, about 40 miles east of Asheville, North Carolina.
“So if that's not the message, someone needs to wake up.”
Scotty Swan, a Marine Corps veteran, had his home flooded with high water. The water level was so high that Mr Swann had to take shelter on the roof of his house and be rescued on a raft.
When the floodwaters receded, Swann's family began repairing the flooded property and discovered a Bible secured to a fence post. By an amazing coincidence, the Bible was opened to Revelation. The Bible has become a symbol of faith and hope for the community.

According to fox weatherthe Swan brothers shared a video of the Bible.
“This Bible was taped to this fence post that was open to the Apocalypse,” said the anonymous brother. “Of all the things that have been destroyed, it's been left open and left there and we haven't touched it.”
“So if that's not the message, somebody needs to wake up,” he noted.
The brother revealed that a man in South Carolina made and donated a cross made of cedar next to the Miraculous Bible.
Woodworker Joey Brown placed a plaque on the cross that read, “Donate to Hurricane Helen Victims.”
Brown told Swann that he donated the cross to “spread the word of God and let people know they are not alone in this hurricane and this hardship.”
“This is surprising considering people's reactions,” Swan's brother said.
Hurricane Helen dumped nearly 30 inches of rain on western North Carolina in just three days in late September, or nearly four months' worth of rain.
According to data As of November 21, there have been 103 confirmed storm-related deaths in North Carolina from Hurricane Helen, according to the North Carolina Department of Health and Human Services.
