God was watching out for me

Today I had one of those "moments" that remind us that God is around all the time and watching out for us. I was on my way to work driving 33-35 in a 30mph road. Well this car must not have seen me and started coming across 4 lanes of traffic. This is not a highway but a busy city street (Oneida st by Walgreen's for those familiar with Appleton) any way I saw her at the last second and hit my breaks hard, because it rained yesterday the roads were still slickish (not icy, but not clear) my truck (saturn vue, SUV) started to skid and I barely missed this person by 2 inches. Luckily there was no one behind me because I stopped to sudden. If someone was following me they would have for sure hit me causing me to t-bone the other person. I immediately thanked God for watching out for me and almost wanted to pull over because my heart was pounding hard. It was scary and situations like that remind us the good that God does, and that he is there for us. To protect us and keep us safe.
Work was good today, kinda a slow week this week. I am sure that tomorrow will be slow because of the awesome Wisconsin weather we are having right now! Snow snow, sleet, rain...you name it we are gonna get it!
This weekend we are going to continue our house hunt. We still really like the great kitchen (Chicago style is the nickname we gave the house because the current owner moved to Chicago) but want to keep our options open because we are still waiting for Grant to get his 2007 taxes transcripts. So I will give you an update after this weekend to see what we find!
Drive safe if you are around the winter weather, and know that God is watching out for you.

  1. Thanks for the tip! I'm so glad that you're okay!

    It's so funny....Nathan is also waiting for his 2007 transcripts... We can't finish the bank part of it until he receives them. Frustrating! :(

    Have a good weekend house hunting!
