As we have shared many times before, LIFE is what happens while we make our plans. Well this week was one of those times for sure. Our daughter, Lisa, was out with our grandsons, Greyson and Rhylen, when a seemingly faulty tire blew out.
Years ago, Lisa, as a high school student in Taiwan,
had the opportunity to take drivers’ education from one of our missionaries, Don Jones. He did a super job, and Lisa talks about how well he prepared them for emergencies you face as a driver. She has had emergency hiccups on several occasions, and with a level head she navigated through those rough waters very well.
Fortunately, Lisa and the boys were almost home and were near the high school located close to their home when it happened. She was actually driving between two trucks, but we are so grateful that she was able to pull the car over. Rhett was in a school board meeting, but as always was accessible to his family. So while waiting for Rhett to get home, a neighbor came and picked them up. A friend, who works at the high school, saw them and waited until their friend came to drive them home. After arriving home, Rhett and Lisa went back to the care so Rhett could change the tire. What a day!
MY TAKE AWAY:
1) We are so grateful to God for the safety of our daughter and grandsons.
2) We are also grateful for FRIENDS who came to help.
3) We too are grateful for Rhett, his skills, and the way he cares for his family.
So we do have GRATEFUL HEARTS for God’s provision for our family. We are so thankful for your prayers for our family over these many years.
