God moments

[KagomeShuko]

What are some of your most amazing God moments?

You know, times when something seemed it should've happened, but didn't and you were so thankful to God for that miracle or something you really wanted happened when it seemed really unlikely?

I'll share mine in this thread, too, but I didn't want to start it with any stories.

One time, I decided I was going to go to my (now ex) boyfriend's house to see him. At that time, I had a big Ford F-150 pickup truck.

It had been raining. I got on the freeway and all seemed fine. I went to pull over into the left lane and I suddenly feel my wheel slip and I go hydroplaining all over the freeway. I'm wasn't sure what to do and I was extremely scared. I turned and my bumper hit the guardrail on the left and I spun more than 360 degrees.

I came to a rest and not a single car was on the freeway that needed to pass me. It was completely void of cars. A man in front of me stopped and walked back to make sure I was okay. I was very shaken, but I managed to pull the truck over to the side of the freeway.

He talked to me and looked a bit at my truck. Nobody was hurt and nothing major had happened to my truck. He just stood there with me while I sat and got all composed again. I had put my head down while the truck was out of control and lightly stepped on the brakes. However, it seemed to only get me to spin and I couldn't control the truck at all.

My dad had a similar experience:

He was driving home from my sister's house, about an hour away from his home. Part of the route was a divided highway with several at-grade intersections. At one of these intersections, a car came barreling from the cross street at about 80 miles per hour. My dad swerved to miss him, but it was already too late. The other car was only a few feet from my dad's truck and there was no way to avoid the impact. They were going to crash, my dad doing 65 miles per hour and this car doing 80. Since the car was going to t-bone my dad's little pickup on the driver's side, my dad realized he was going to be killed, and he braced for the impact, hoping he wouldn't have too much pain before he died. Somehow, the car went right through my dad's and didn't crash into him. My dad came to a stop in the crossroads, well away from any danger, and the car just kept going. To the day he died years later, my dad could not explain how he avoided dying that day, except to say that God had saved him.

That's just so awesome! God is always amazing!
