'The Stray' Movie Director Recounts the Terrifying Moment He Was Struck by Lightning—And the One Word that Saved His Life"During that period, I have no memory of anything except after several minutes, I began to be able to hear. I could hear the boys crying, screaming, and praying for me. I heard my son say, 'don't die, dad! Please don't die.' I heard one of the boys promise God he would never do another bad thing in his life if I would just wake up. I could hear them, but I couldn't respond or react..."
Mitch Davis was camping with his 9-year-old son, two other little boys, and his dog, Pluto in the remote mountains of Colorado when tragedy struck—literally. "The actual memory of the moment is completely erased, but the boys tell me that lightning came through the roof of the tent, hit me in the heart, and I flew back," Davis told the Gospel Herald in an exclusive interview. "A significant portion of the lightning that was in my body went out of my right hand and into the kid next to me and bounced around from kid to kid. They tell me that I was on my back and my eyes were wide open, but they were rolled back into my head and they didn't think I was breathing. They thought I was dead." He continued, "During that period I have no memory of anything except after several minutes, I began to be able to hear. I could hear the boys crying, screaming, and praying for me. I heard my son say, 'don't die, dad! Please don't die.' I heard one of the boys promise God he would never do another bad thing in his life if I would just wake up. I could hear them, but I couldn't respond or react." At that moment, darkness came over Mitch, and he began to die.
However, God had other plans for Mitch's life. As he lay on the ground, dying, he heard a voice—God's voice. "He expressed His love for me, His approval of me, and then said very clearly, 'Ask in confidence,'" He said. "I felt encouraged by God to just pray and expect a miracle, and so I did." Mitch was able to say one word—"Father"—and as soon as he uttered that word, he was released from his paralysis. "My eyes rolled forward, I stuck my head up, I looked around, I was conscious, the darkness was gone, and I was alive," he said. "It was very much a message from God, and the message was, 'I love you, you're good enough, ask in confidence and I will hear your prayers and I will answer them.'" This terrifying experience serves as the climax of Davis' upcoming film, "The Stray", hitting theaters this October. Continue reading and watch the movie trailer by clicking here.
