Protection.

It was just another day. Waking up, brushing my teeth, getting dressed, and down to breakfast. I thought it would be just another day. But once we got into the car and started driving on Bayview we realized that there was A WHOLE LOT of traffic. There was no way that I would be at school on time. For sure I would be late. As we traveled along Bayview we tried listening to the radio for news updates but nothing was said. It usually takes us around 7 minutes to get to school and today it took us a whole lot longer, it took us about 20 minutes to get to school.

Of course we weren’t expecting anything that would happen to us. Once we got to the intersection before my school we say 3 cars that had gotten into an accident. The middle car was DESTROYED. The hood was bent up and the truck was basically gone. The police, cars, and drivers / passengers were all pulled up on the loop that lead into my school.

As I saw the police writing down information I thought to myself, “What if that was me.” I realized that God’s protection plays such an important part in our lives. We would never expect a car accident to happen but, it does. We don’t know when or where but somehow one can happen.

His hand protects us every step that we take. From as simple as walking across the street, He is there to hold us close and protect us from the drivers. He guides us every step of the way and we have to be thankful for that. He keeps us safe 24/7.
