But man, watching in horror as that van slid off the road and tipped over is just seared in my memory. What a day! And even as frightening as it was, God took such good care of all of us.

I was so shaken and scattered and scared, that rainbow was a gift and a reminder of sacred presence. It comforted me unlike anything else could.<br /><br /> I'm picking up what your putting down here, girl. Thanks for the story.rev amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01612003122625140638noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8897882981515430685.post-5973943579134110312010-09-17T00:13:22.983+10:002010-09-17T00:13:22.983+10:00I am the stressy one too.

Those moments when God is so clearly touching you through something only He could do, it catches you off guard and causes you to feel like a puddle in his arms. Love those moments. Love this story =).Crystal Keilers, that's me.https://www.blogger.com/profile/11259348270961318431noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8897882981515430685.post-23769294381214389422010-09-16T22:44:28.954+10:002010-09-16T22:44:28.954+10:00This is a touching story.

You both have been examples of "living by faith" I think. I love your phrasing of " a dollop of stillness" as it perfectly describes all of our lives sometimes. I am thankful that God gives us those moments when we need them. And maybe He gives them to us even when we don't notice. Perhaps we should pay attention more closely. Thanks for this lovely post.delainehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01519073646760104147noreply@blogger.com
