So today was the most frightening Halloween ever for Geoff and I. We were driving back from the Baylor UT game (yay bears!) this afternoon during the massive accident on 35 involving an oil drill semi-truck. We watched the entire thing happen, from the semi barreling down the road behind us to it sideswiping my side of the car to it taking out a lamppost and flipping over the median. Had it been just a few inches further over, I would certainly not be sitting here typing this right now. And it's highly possible I wouldn't be typing anything ever again. Miraculously, no one was killed or even very seriously injured in the whole thing. The news says there were 6 cars and the semi involved, but I for sure counted more like 8 cars.
It still seems unreal. I see the truck coming at me in my head, then expect to hear a big crash and be done for, but here I am. We were certainly able to see God at work today. There is no way every one of us there should have walked away, yet we did. Even the semi driver came out alright.
I wish I could think of a clean tie to what I've been reading in Judges this weekend, but I honestly can not put my thought together quite that much right yet.
