A Miracle!

This morning John woke up early and left for a drive to our new city. He had planned to drive with his good friend Daniel so they could leave Daniel's car there. Daniel and Kayla are moving with us to our new city but they will be in America this summer so they wanted to go ahead and have there car up there. The drive was going to take them about 13 hours so they left really early. John kissed me good bye this morning and I rolled over and went back to sleep thinking nothing out of the ordinary would happen today.

As I was jumping out of the shower this morning I could here my phone ringing. I ran to answer it and it was Kayla she was crying. She said she couldn't believe that the van was totaled and that all of our stuff had been destroyed. ( She had assumed I had already heard from John at this point.) My heart dropped into my stomach as I asked her if John and Daniel were ok. She said "You haven't talked to John at all?" I said "no" and she reassured me they were ok but that I should call John right away. As I hung up the phone I was shaking and I realized I had several missed calls from John. I gave him a call and the first thing he said to me was "Honey, we were in a wreck we are ok but we shouldn't be alive right now." I just started crying. John told me that they had hit some traffic on the highway and had come to a complete stop. A rather large truck was trying to get stopped behind them and couldn't. It flipped on top of the van crushing all of the van except for the driver and passenger side! After we got off the phone I just fell to my knees and thanked God that he spared their lives.

Later that day John sent me pictures of the wreck and it was then I realized that this was a true miracle. God obviously has plans for John and Daniel on this earth and it was clearly not their time to die.
