Power of Prayer = Protection

So we drove home from Lake Powell today. It was a long 7 hour drive. Before we left we had a prayer with as a family to protect us in our travels on the way home. Boy! Was I ever glad we had that prayer. 

It was about 5 hours into the trip and we had just got on I-15. We were in a line of traffic going about 75 mph. We were driving the motorhome with the girls in it and the boys were behind us driving our truck pulling the boat. When all of the sudden the entire line of traffic came to a screeching halt. We could see 10 cars up ahead of us all slamming on their brakes. Cars were swerving as they slammed on their brakes not to hit the car in front of them. As my husband slammed on his brakes we looked into the rear-view mirror to see our son J'Dee slam on the truck brakes and we heard him screech and swerve out of the way to miss us. The car behind them swerved to miss them as well. 

The entire event was a chain reaction as each car behind another swerved to miss one another. I am not sure if cars behind us rear-ended one another but we barely made it out without any accident or injury! How grateful I am for the power of prayer and the protection it gives us daily! I know our prayers were answered today and that we were protected and brought home safe and sound!

I am so grateful to our Father in Heaven who hears and answers each and every prayer in his own way and own time!
