Thank You, Lord!





"Thank You, Lord!" were the words that came out of my mouth a few seconds after surviving a life-threatening car accident. I was heading home when a private car running at a very fast speed hit the cab where I was. The private car was on the opposite direction of the road and went past a blind curve before it hit us. While we were still a few meters away I already knew it's going to hit us so hard and that there was no way for the cab driver to avoid that fast approaching car. We later found that the reckless driver was drunk and a police officer. Things could have been really worse but I really thank God that we (cab driver and I) were both fine except for the minor bruises I got. It was a miracle that the windshield and all the windows did not get broken nor have any cracks. God indeed charged His angels to protect us that night. One more thing worth noticing is the name of the company that operates the taxi service (see pictures). That night I was reminded of the things that matter in life. One of them is relationship. Relationship with God, family, loved ones and friends. The fact that there is only one life to live should be reason enough not to keep delaying what you should be pursuing.

that just brought glory to God dave. It's just so amazing how God does things to open our eyes; and it's really wide open that you can't shut it! You learned big time out of what happened. You know what? keep having that teachable and understanding heart and you'll see greater things from God. Indeed wisdom is calling out in the streets. I'm glad you were in the "streets" when wisdom was calling out.
