Almost

I almost had a wreck today. I really don't understand where that truck came from. I mean it was one of those bright yellow trucks that belongs to the state. I looked all three ways, twice. pulled out and oh! slammed on brakes just in time to miss the yellow pickup truck right in front of me. What I think is that he came around the curve really fast trying to catch up with the rest of the state trucks that have passed by just 15 seconds earlier, because I know the sharp curve is the last place that I looked because it is a dangerous place to pull out, the curve being right at the intersection and it's a real sharp curve that you really can't see traffic until it's right at you.. The only other thing that could have happened is ;'that I just didn't see a big yellow truck. Anyway what ever the reason, I know God's hand was there helping my van stop just short of hitting the truck.

I've had a lot of almost's in my life. And I know that God has seen everyone of them and has had His hand securely on me. Some of the almost's are things that I was hoping would happen that didn't, things that I was disappointed about. And I wondered why God didn't let it happen. But now in my somewhat old age. I stand back and praise God that He kept these things from me. It was more a blessing to me that I not have them.

God knows what is good for us, and even when we think that God has deserted us because of circumstances. He's right there, trying to bring comfort to us in our hurts. Bringing strength and courage to us in our fears. Oh my friends we have such a great God, so forgiving of our weaknesses, So merciful with ever abounding grace. There is nothing that God will not help us get through. But each of us must remember that God's will is not always our will. We must consider what God's will is for us, We can find that out though prayer and a closeness to Him.

Have a wonderful day and until tomorrow, God bless each one of you.
