more accidents

and more grace.
"But he gives us more grace. That is why Scripture says: "God opposes the proud but gives grace to the humble." James 4:6

My husband was in another accident Tuesday night. He had gone to visit my brother in an unfamiliar city, and got lost. He pulled over to call for directions, but realized that he recognized where he was. He began to pull back onto the four-lane highway, and was hit by a car that swerved from the other lane. The car door is so deeply dented that the frame is bent. The glass is gone. The door won't open. But miraculously, my husband is okay. Sore, but okay.

We are thankful for the little graces, and for the big things - for his life, for the fact that we have a second car that was recently fixed, for my job, and for the beauty of the past few (rain-less) days.

Breathing.
