God did a miracle for me. I truly believe He sent His angels to protect me in a very obvious way.
We were having a barbecue at my parents house years ago. At some point during the evening, I strayed off and hopped on my father's four-wheeler without any protection on my head.
Didn't know what I was doing. I accidentally accelerated very harshly because the gas was so easy to floor. Before I really realized what was going on, I careened down a hill and hit a tree.
But guess what?
I saw myself going right into the tree trunk, but never felt anything. Next thing I knew, I was beyond the tree, off to the side of it.
I was quite shaken at the “accident.” But what overwhelmed me more than the scariness of the incident is the fact that I knew I hit the tree. But somehow I ended up safely past it.
I even went back and looked to see how in the world I missed that tree. Sure enough, the tire tracks on the ground went straight into the trunk and yet I ended up on the outside of the tree trunk, safely beyond the tree.
I had to look several times and couldn't believe my eyes and it was only then, after I got over my shock that somehow I had missed the tree that I began to thank God and I realized what had happened.
God had protected me. It was supernatural. My shock at what I couldn't explain had temporarily distracted me from my joy, relief and gratitude that I was safe.
Because I was still trying to figure out the supernatural, how I had missed the tree I knew had hit before I accepted that it had to be God. Then I focused on my gratitude.
