electrathon Report post Posted January 17, 2011 Often the power of God can be a very strong guiding force. It does sort of say that you likely have yet to complete the tasks you were sent here to do. It is good to hear that you are OK. Aaron Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LNLeather Report post Posted January 23, 2011 Wow! I am so glad to hear that you and your friend had minimal bruises. You must be feeling Very Lucky Indeed and So Very Thankful to "the powers that be"... And that truck driver must also be thrilled that no one was more seriously hurt... Have you had a chance to talk with him? I can only imagine what it was like for him to see what was going to happen and not to be able to do anything about it. You and all of your families were So Very Fortunate! I am so happy to hear that you are going to be OK! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

acox4t4 Report post Posted January 30, 2011 Thanks for sharing about your faith, its good to hear and see how God can work in people's lives. Glad to see this is a site that when God is mentioned the post doesn't get deleted In looking at those pictures it also brought to my mind the mircle of the truck not blowing up or catching fire, isn't that what alot of that age ect of trucks when in a side impact crash like that doing due to where the gas tank was??? or am I wrong about the tank being kinda by the cab?? Anyway you are a very blessed man. Just goes to show everyone we never know the day or time so be ready always. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
