Finishing my 5 mile run on snowy roads:
Sam and I are carefully jogging home with a short 1/4 mile stretch on the street.
Turning on my light to show the vehicles we are here, please make room for us. As I watch the vehicle approaching us, I hug the snowbank. Sam on the other hand hears a vehicle driving up behind on the other side and wants to bark at it leaning into the middle of the road.
As the first vehicle passes, I pull Sam back to me but he is not willing. Expecting the vehicle approaching us to move over or slow down just a bit, but I am taken by surprise seeing the lights bearing down on us with no regard for our safety. I throw myself into the snowbank and pull Sam as hard as I am able to get out of the way.
Thankfully God helped push Sam over to me as the vehicle passes very close. I have a vision of Sam fully in the road broadside with the lights bearing down quickly. How he didn’t get hit I don’t really know. I can still see Sam in the road with the vehicle approaching quickly!
But God is Good!
My husband’s reaction was a surprise, “No big deal. You are safe. That is what life it like today.”
Thanking God for keeping us safe!
God is Good! Amen.
Praying for the driver to be Blessed with Wisdom and Understanding of the people out there to keep everyone safe. Amen.
