sooo, this morning i was heading to work…typical monday morning…drop molly and cooper off at the sitter’s house and head to town…i got stopped at a stop light and took a sip of my diet coke(no bean this morning…what is the world coming to)…
as i watched the two cars ahead of me, it happened…this truck came barrelling out of no where, running a stop sign…there was a small honda two cars ahead of me…it got NAILED in the driver’s side…the car took a hop up into the yard and then shot back into the road and spun til it was facing the opposite direction…glass, plastic, and car parts everywhere…they had to cut the driver of the honda out of the car…but both guys were able to talk with me and seemed to be doing just fine…
the vehicle directly in front of me…had a mother and three small children in it…i had just dropped off my two children…WOW…that’s all i can say…WOW!!!
i was sooo thankful that i was safe and that my children were safe…i was sooo thankful that this mother and her children were safe…and i was thankful that both men involved were safe…
but i was quickly reminded of how small i am…of how i have no control of a great deal that happens in life…of how big God is…of how He is in complete control…
because it was a matter of…
feet…seconds…
thank you Lord!!!!for the well being of all involved. God isn’t finished with Jon yet….and we pray that God will allow us to continue enjoying the wonderful ministry Jon presents to us each weekend at LL..
Jon, You are soooooooo right. Events like that make us realize in an instant how things can change so quickly forever. God is in control!
Thank you Lord for being with Jon this morning in the event of the accident. I think God has alot of plans for you Jon to continue in your ministry at LL during this temp transformation with Pastor Dan and all, We are just giving all the praise and glory to our Almighty for keeping everyone involved this morning in His care.. I am sure you needed a double fix of bean after that!!
found out that the truck’s brakes didn’t work…the guy couldn’t have stopped if he wanted to…
