A former member of our church and youth group lost control of his SUV this weekend. *John crashed through a fence and into the bedroom of a brick home in Tulsa. He is presently in the hospital fighting for his life.

Our pastor has a close relationship with this young man and wanted to relay the rest of the story. Pastor went and visited the house Mark crashed into. The back bedroom where the SUV landed was the bedroom of three young girls. Laying in the debris and on top of the bed is a boulder too large for any man to lift. From the looks of the room there were no survivors – and yet there were three. Not one of those girls were injured even though they were in bed at the time of the accident.

Pastor asked the couple how that happened, and this was their story.

Dad heard the squealing breaks and the crashing noises heading toward the house. He ran back to get his daughters only to find out that they weren’t there. He yelled into the hall to his wife “Where are the girls!”

“What are you taking about?” She replied. “You just handed them to me.” And sure enough, there they were standing behind her.

A split second later, John’s SUV came crashing through that bedroom and the boulder landed on the girls’ bed.

In the seconds before the accident a man handed those babies to their mother. They asked Pastor who he thought it was. (This family doesn’t believe in God or angels) – he gave them the only possible answer – Jesus Christ Himself.

It may have been Christ, or it may have been an angel. It doesn’t matter – the fact remains – someone handed those babies to their mother – and now Mom and Dad, believe in something bigger than themselves.

I’m not surprised.

He’s like that you know.

God I mean.

*The name of the actual driver has been changed for the writing this story. The real young man is presently in a coma and is fighting for his life. We may never know what caused his accident.

updated 1/5/09 – he is out of his coma with no apparent brain damage. he does need multiple surgeries though to fix facial features and other issues. Please continue to pray for him. Thanks.
