Thank God for His protection

At about 11:00 am this morning, my daughter-Lindsey was involved in a car accident. She was on her way to visit a friend in the Atlanta area and swerved to miss a large recap on the road. She lost control of the car (my 2000 Ford Explorer) just south of Calhoun, Georgia and hit a guard rail while traveling at about 70 MPH. She then crossed three lanes and came to a stop just off the emergency lane on the right side of the road.

It just so happened that I was in Chattanooga (about 5O miles away) and was able to get to her immediately. The Georgia State Trooper told me that he had seen people killed with less of a crash.

Lindsey was wearing her seatbelt and was bruised and is sore but I thank God that He spared her life. Since it just happened today, I don't know how bad the damage will be (in dollars). It appeared to me that the front axle was broken, and maybe the frame too.

Please help me pray for Lindsey and at the same time praise God for His goodness.

Mos of the people in this chapter are well-known, at least by anyone who spent time squirming in a Sunday School class as a small child, or who watched the late-night movies on the local channels featuring their stories. Who were they? Abel, Enoch and Noah. Abel pleased God with his excellent offering, Enoch was so close to God that he actually walked with God to the point that one evening, while walking God said to Enoch, "we are closer to my house than we are yours, so why don't you just go home with me?" Of course, Noah built an ark (according to God's instructions) that saved mankind from total destruction. Then there was Abraham...the father of the faithful. He...
