Making Every Second Count
Tonight, I came within a second of likely losing my life. I had just entered an intersection on a green light when I saw out of the corner of my eye, a large pickup truck and a car speeding through the intersection on a red light. I stopped just in time as they blew through the light and missed my car. The truck was big and going extremely fast. In my little compact car I would have been toast. As I drove on towards home, tears were streaming down my face as I contemplated what had just happened. I thank God, I have another morning to wake up to my beautiful son. I will hug him tightly when I pick him up out of his crib. I don't know why God saved me tonight, but I do know that He knows the number of days I have on this earth and I want to use them all for His glory. I will trust His plan for my life and do my best to be a good soldier for Him. As I crawl under my quilt tonight, I will just breath a sigh of relief and utter my humble thanks to Him who shows me grace and mercy every moment of my life.

Wow! That must have been scary. I have been in situations like that. I think the Lord uses them to wake us up. I'm so glad you're OK.
I'm a little behind so I just read your last three posts. You know, sometimes God uses our own words to show I something. That's why I journal. Go back and read your last few posts and then read this one. Love Ya!
Praise the Lord!! You're time on this earth has not come to pass. That's because you still have work to do, and I for one am thankful!
Praising God that He had His angels protecting you! I know that must have made your heart leap out of your chest. He is indeed gracious and merciful.
