AN ACCIDENT OR A WAKE UP CALL

So there I was driving after being at a house warming. While there testifying and sharing God's love and miracles.

On the way home something happened that I never expected. I lost control over the car and ended up in a ditch braking one of my ribs.

I never understood why it happened until a while after. I felt Jesus was trying to call out to me. To tell me there are things in my life I should very urgently change. I knew what it was.

And only earlier the week my girlfriend's brother past away. The topic of his funeral service was, that we are here to serve other people. That all ready got me thinking...

On the way back from Cape Town to Hermanus me and Natanja was driving on the R43 as we passed Hawston a old Merc suddenly just slam the breaks in front of us and just missed us. We were driving her boss' Golf. Later that same night I took the Chana bakkie to go to the Total garage to get smokes, as I came out of the Total garage on the road that joins up to the main road as a T junction a car turned left but in the one way lane almost hitting me and I tried to use the horn, but it has been broken for a while.

I prayed and thanked God that he protected me and said to Him, I would have to tell my boss that we get the horn fixed.

So one night after gym and Panaroties I was ministering to a friend of mine and while listening to the friend the whole I was leaning on the steering wheel. Later at the end of the discussion all of the sudden there was a load hooting sound and the horn was working again. I started laughing and prayed to God thanking Him.

This all happened before the accident though and funny thing is there was not car in front of me or any reason why I should have used the hooter. And now the hooter is broken again.

So now you ask me what is the whole point to this story...

Well as I see it God told showed me how powerful He is and how quickly He can take something away, and that you must remember everything you are and have is by His grace.

Hopefully the smokes was not for you as we are told to present our bodies as a living sacrifice to God, and we know God's son Jesus did not smoke, So neither should his true followers, also the prophecies God and Jesus wants us to do is witness to all the coming Kingdom, that is the whole theme of the Bible, Regards Lori
