As the roar of the jets was silenced and the aircraft ceased to climb, as the pilot guided the powerless plane towards a desperate crash landing in the Hudson River and announced, Brace for impact, Berretta closed his eyes, clutched the prayer book in his pocket, and tried to prepare himself for death. A multitude of thoughts flooded his mind all at once. He reminded himself that the odds of surviving a water landing were slim to none. He thought of his wife and his four children, and how they would miss him. He remembered he had just been to confession and to Mass, and he wondered if his soul would be ready to meet the Lord.

At that very instant, Berretta felt a push or nudge on his conscience; a state of awareness he'd never before experienced; and a keen realization that he had to do something. But what? Then God's voice sounded strong and clear in the depths of his soul: Are you going to accept My will for your life.…
