Protection from car accident


On my last day of national service in the military, I was happily driving home from camp. The road I happened to take when the accident occurred was a narrow 2 way road, a single lane for each direction.

I saw an earth-mover approaching from the opposite direction, and did not see a delivery truck tailgating that earth-mover, until the truck swerved into my lane.

Having no time to react, I smashed into the truck at a pretty high speed. After stepping out of the vehicle (which was a miracle in itself), I found the front of my car caved in, and realised that the magnitude of that force was not reflected in the cabin itself. The airbag did not deploy, nor did the windscreen shatter.

The impact would also have been worse if I had acted on my happy impulses to speed away from my last day of military service, but I guess that’s where the Lord also protected me.

I want to praise the Lord for His hand in my well-being.
