Help comes when you least expect it and from an unexpected source.
Miracle of the Gas Pump Taken from the book"The Voices Within Us" by Jim Stewart
One Easter weekend while I was still in college, a few of my friends (Loyd,Bill, Gilbert and Andy) and I went to the Texas Gulf Coast for a weekend of fun. We headed out in Bill's 59 Ford Fairlaine, (two toned greenand cream, with tail fins.) We were all talking about the fun that we were going to have,, all of a sudden all of a sudden, a semi-tractor trailer runs us off of the road. Our car went sliding out of control and was headed straight fo a gas pump at a gas station. I quickly asked God for help. Bill was applying the brakes, but we were skidding sideways, so the brakes were not helping us. Just then, and angel came between out car and the gas pump and stopped us about six inches from the gas pump.
We just could not beleive what had happened to us. It was a miracle we were still alive. We all could have blown up in an explosion if we had hit that pump.
Our Angels keep track of us and we need to acknowledge that miracle of their participation in our lives - It is humbling to know that Angels and Archangels and Saints, as well as those we love who have crossed over, as well as the Holy Trinity and Holy Mother love us!
