Yesterday, my husband wanted to cut a large limb out of a tree, so I had to slowly lift him up while he was standing in the bucket of his tractor. Then he was able to cut the limb with a pole saw.
Thankfully, I didn't dump him out. All went well, then he was driving the tractor under and around the tree when another very large limb fell on the top of the cab of the tractor.
The roof kept the log from falling right on top of my husband! I know he would have been seriously hurt if not killed.
Then late yesterday, we learned that our daughter was in a bad car accident. She was on a major highway when another car crossed four lanes of traffic, right into her path. She didn't have time to avoid the crash.
But I'm so absolutely thankful to God for His mercy. She was taken to the ER and wasn't seriously injured. I haven't learned all the details yet, but I did ask her husband if she just didn't want us to worry. He said she was awfully sore, but will be okay. I think she really hated that her new car got totaled!
So, God protected our family twice yesterday. I know that bad things happen to Christians, but I'm so thankful every time God does have mercy on us.
Please say a prayer for our daughter....I'll give you an update soon.

She's seven hours away. I'd have been there last night if I could. Depending on how she's doing today will determine if we go there.

@Courage7 I know she realizes it can be replaced, but she can't!

A car can be replaced, I'm angry that her seat belt broke and her air bag didn't open! But, still, I'm so very grateful to God for protecting her.

@1creekgirl Goodnes, in that case she was very lucky. Seat belts don't break too often. And air bags sometimes cause quite nasty injuries.

Sending prayers for your daughter and it's a miracle she wasn't killed...or your husband with the falling tree limb. God is great.
My granddaughter was also in a car accident yesterday but nothing as serious as your daughter. I thank God it wasn't worse than it was.

Yay! Indeed God is good! Recently, me and my family in a car crossed a bridge at night on our way home. We thought that water flowing isn’t that much so we crossed and at the almost end of the cemented bridge the water had gone up and became stronger and pushing our car to the other side almost falling. I thought it’s gonna be the last day for us but prayed hard and God saved us!! Really thankful~
Will pray for your daughter. Indeed prayers are powerful!!

Thank you so much for your prayers! The Holy Bible reads in Hebrews 1:14 (NIV) Are not all angels ministering spirits sent to serve those who will inherit salvation? I believe God does often send his angels to help us.
