To guard you in all your ways

Wow. Have you ever just experienced Gods protection in such a way that you just know He was right with you?


Psalm 91:11

For He will give His angels charge concerning you, To guard you in all your ways.


Well I did this morning…. I was driving into work… wanted to get their super early since I have a big day today with a lot of work to finish. I decided to cut through University, go through the Safeway parking lot and go to Old Lee Highway, I knew if I took 123 that I would be stuck in stand still traffic. As I was driving through the safeway parking lot to the traffic light, I saw it was already green and thought “Sweet! Thank you Lord”, drove through, and the morning light was literally blinding my eyes and before I know it CRASH bump bump….I drove over the wooden street sign in the middle of the intersection, saw it right when I hit it and saw it break and go under my car. I was shocked….I sat for a moment…turned off my car…then though I need to pull over somewhere safe and see if my car is okay and isn’t damaged and dangerous. So I pulled around the corner. Texted Scott and some co-workers “Just in major accident” hey it was major to me and I thought my car was a goner…and I destroyed a sign…I was shocked and scared. Scott called me and he asked me to look at my car, I was like “Umm Scott….their is like no damage! none!” So we agreed to meet in the safeway parking lot, he came and sure enough I only have a tiny scratch barely noticeable on my car. The head lights were fine, my tires fine, we looked under the car and everything looked great and nothing was leaking…I said wow my tiny Ford Focus is a beast! Who knew. Scott believes I was protected by angels. I believe so to. Called the cops, it was the right thing to do, plus I essentially destroyed their sign. The cops took 30 mins to come over, they apologized (the Sargent came as well) because whomever took my call placed me on a hold and they were supposed to respond with in mins (they were less than a mile from me) and it took them 30 mins. I was like not a problem I am the one in trouble here and made a mistake. The cop couldn’t believe their was no damage to my car and I told him its the Lord protecting me. He wrote up the incident and then gave me my card and said “This one is on him”. So not only did the Lord completely protect me and my car in running over a big wooden sign. Which truly could have cost me thousands in repairs, but he also protected me from a ticket, paying a fine and from my insurance rates going up.


I praise the Lord that He has blessed me again with his unmerited grace that is totally undeserving. Just last night I was dreading today. Now I give thanks for today, because today I have seen the Lords hand of blessing over my life. So many things could have gone wrong, but he has completely protected me. I also praise him for allowing me to see cops in a different light, and allowing my fiance to come out to assist me when I had no idea what to do and I was scared. Im blessed beyond measure….


Psalm 91:14-16

“Because he has loved Me, therefore I will deliver him;


         I will set him securely on high, because he has known My name. 


    ”He will call upon Me, and I will answer him;


         I will be with him in trouble;


         I will rescue him and honor him. 


    ”With a long life I will satisfy him


         And let him see My salvation.”
