My first CRASH

11 06 2008

Well it hasn’t been the best week of my life in most senses, even though there are many dreams coming true in the midst of some great heartache.  Wednesday of last week I got a hunch to back up my Macbook, which I hadn’t done since I received it in March.  Friday rolled around and sure enough my screen went white and I couldn’t get my computer to respond.  After hard starting the mac and trying everything I could think of the inevitable finally started to sink in.  My fears were realized when I took my mac in on saturday to the tune of “we’re sorry, but it looks like your hard drive has failed.”  they replaced it for free, but it did cost two trips to indy in gas.  

Fast forward 24 hrs.  

It was Monday night and I decided to make a McDonalds run since I hadn’t made myself an adequate meal after a busy day.  It had just rained and it was quite dark.  I was 5 blocks from home and had just made my second to last turn when disaster struck… This dear lady in a tank of a car pulled right out in front of me.  I’m guessing you know where this is going.  I tried to swerve and put the brakes on, but before I knew it I was sliding right into her with a loud bang.  The left front corner of her tank hit my poor toyota right between the headlights.  There were no injuries, thank the Lord… only a stiff neck and lower back today after much stress to the body.  There are pictures attached to this entry so that you might share in my heartache over such a wonderful car.  

In the midst of these crashes I’m well aware there is certainly a power working to destroy, to tear down, to disable…  I stand on what I know to be true: That Jesus is the Rock and it is in Him that I put my trust.  Even though there are times of great trial and heartache, I pray that I might be found worthy of the calling God has placed on my life.  That I might be rooted and established in love… firmly founded in the truth of identity with God.
