A New Year of Life
Celebrating a birthday or as I like to call it- a new
year of life, always puts me in a reflective mode. It makes me look at the years gone by and see
how I have grown or maybe not grown in the ways I would like to. A few weeks ago I almost got into a serious
car accident. I have heard people speak
about having your whole life flash in front of you. I don’t think my whole life flashed in front
of me, but I do know that that experience made me more grateful and thankful
for my life.
My life is a precious gift from God and what I do with my
one life is my gift to God. After my
near tragic experience some people may say that there was probably a logical
and scientific explanation to why I am safe today. Today I say that it was a miracle. Whatever we
chose to call this mysterious awesome being is irrelevant; I know I was kept
safe from harm on that day. To make
matters even more interesting after my near collision the song that came on the
radio was, “My God is Awesome.” Who am I
to disagree with that!
