Sermon Material

Yesterday Robin and four of her friends were in a terrible accident. A woman pulled out right in front of Robin's vehicle and caused it to flip over, landing upside down. Miraculously, none of the girls were seriously injured. Everyone from the policeman who filed the report to the paramedic with the ambulance to the attending physician at the emergency room stressed how fortunate we were that the girls weren't more seriously injured. The paramedic told me almost all accidents involving a roll-over include dismemberment if not death.


We know the hand of God was on Robin and her friends, protecting them from what have could been a tragic situation. It is amazing that one person could climb out of that banged up SUV unscathed, but for all five of them to escape serious injury is absolutely miraculous! Were angels on assignment yesterday? You be they were! It seems the worst that will come out of this is a few scrapes and bruises (Robin got five stitches for a laceration on her forehead) and a new car - I'm afraid her little Ford Escape is totaled. At the emergency room she asked me, "Dad will this make it into one of your sermons?" A few hours later it did.
