Re: Amazing accounts anyone?

I have a first-hand account of a miracle that happened YESTERDAY!

My husband called me around dinner last evening and told me he had just looked death in the eye. My heart almost stopped as he began to tell me the details...

He drives an eighteen-wheeler in the mountains, and was on one of the most dangerous passes in the area yesterday. I had talked to him on Monday about it, and he was worried then, because they were expecting bad weather. I told him I would be praying for him, and I had mentioned it also to a close friend, who was praying also.

So he was on this mountain pass, which is a road with no shoulders, a very narrow road, and straight drop offs with no guard rails. Driving on mountain passes in bad weather is tricky business anyway, but on this road, it is not for the faint of heart! It was raining lightly, and he was driving slower than normal. As he went around one of the switchbacks, immediately the road conditions had changed to ice and snow.

His loaded trailer lost traction, and jacknifed across the road, hanging over the edge with the drop-off down to the river below. He steered out of this, and got the trailer back on the road, only to have it jack-knife a second time, this time with the tires of the tractor hanging off the drop-off, and he remembers looking straight down, and again, he was able to steer out of that, and get the rig back onto the road, and continue on his way.

As he told the story to me, I remembered the email my friend had sent to me earlier that day, and I KNEW the hand of God had protected him. My friend, whom I had shared that my husband would be driving on this dangerous road, woke up in the middle of the night, and prayed for him, and had emailed me earlier that day to tell me about it.

You can say what you want, or somehow excuse the miraculous hand of God in this, but when my husband got home last night, there was something different about him. He could hardly go to sleep, and he was still talking about it this morning. It has really shook him to his core. He said he knew he was dead in the seconds it was all happening, as he was looking down at the river below, and the hand of God picked that truck back up and put the truck back on the road.

We give the LORD JESUS all the glory, and all the credit for this miracle in our life today!!!
