A Taste of Summer and an Answer to Prayer Unprayed

The heat wave arrived in our area sometime early this morning. I even ate my breakfast out on the back steps! We hit at least 82 degrees. If I closed my eyes I could pretend it was summer, but when I opened them up I found there are still no leaves on the trees. It won't be long though.

We have a small house guest for the next week. Josh has come to stay while Beth and Adam spend the week in Nashville. Adam has to take two classes for work so they're making a vacation of it. Late in the week, while Adam takes his class, Beth plans to spend a bit of time with an old friend who lives in the area. Those were the plans anyway...

A couple hours ago Beth called to let us know where they were and say good-night to Josh. All was well. Sometime between then and the next call (about 20 minutes ago) they were hit by a drunk driver and rolled their vehicle. Bethany says they are both okay but Adam has a bump on his head. They are going to the hospital to make sure. When they left this morning, the thought of car accidents went through my mind. I can't say I really prayed (some warrior I am!) but I'm sure the Lord knows my heart. Sometimes He answers even unspoken prayers! Thank you, Jesus!

  2. The car is totalled. It landed on its roof and all the windows are broke out. Praise God they left Josh here with us! They will continue on to Nashville once they are okayed at the hospital and can get a rental car.

  4. I feel like crying tears of joy that they are okay and that Josh was safe in his bed at your house. God is so good. I just said a little prayer for them.

  6. I'm so happy they are safe. A call no one wants to get... that there has been an accident.

    How grateful that Josh wasn't with them. God is Good.

    Love and Hugs and Prayers, Martha.
