Angels Watching Over Me
On
September 20, 2001, at approximately 4:30 p.m., I was going home
from visiting my grandmother (“mama”) in the hospital. Mama
begged me not to leave…to just stay with her for a while. I
had to go home because my car only had one headlight when it was
on dim. So, it was time to leave. Mama kept on telling me to
please be careful, and I assured her that I would!
As
I made my way home, I was doing the usual…thinking what I was
going to do when I got home, thinking about “mama”…just
the usual thing one would do when driving home after a day of
work. Except play
music! I didn’t have music playing for I could not get
out of my mind what “mama” kept saying. She
begged me to stay over and over. As I was leaving she kept
telling me to be careful. Hmm…how ‘bout that?
I
was sitting in the turn lane, facing west, waiting to turn
south. I saw a fire truck pumper coming toward me (east) a long
distance away, and had already decided that I would not go even
if I got my green arrow. Everyone else was doing the same
thing….sitting still. Even
though Tennessee law is that a fire truck is to “check up”
at a red light (slowing down slow enough to make eye contact
with each vehicle at the intersection) he didn’t do this….he
may have slowed a bit but not much at all.
Then all of a
sudden here comes a vehicle from the south going north and as
the fire truck came through the intersection the car broad-sided
him knocking him my way. The fire truck then hit the
median and flipped and hit my drivers side back door. As
the truck was flipping the 150 gallon water tank (which weighs
1500 pounds) flew off the back of the truck and landed on my
windshield and top of the car.
I
was 100% covered by an angel or the hand of God. For I was
hit right around where I was sitting, but not right in the
drivers door…and the water tank landed in my windshield, but
over just enough as to not harm me. It was like an
“umbrella” or “dome” was around me. Hey, I know what was
around me!! Thank You Father For Your Mercies Are New
EVERY Morning!!! Great Is Your Faithfulness!
So,
my friends, I am…by God’s grace…here to tell you that God
does look out for us. I am sure all of you have a story about
how He protected you at one time or another.
Ain’t
He too cool???
Psalm 91:11:12
For
He will give His angels charge concerning you, to guard you in
all your ways. They will bear you up in their hands, lest you
strike your foot against a stone.
Hallelujah!!
Blessed Beyond Measure!
