Sometimes we focus more on the bad things that happen to us more than the bad things from which we are spared. Today, I backed my small car out of a parking lot space at the same time that a large truck was backing out of its parking space. Of course, I checked before I put my car in reverse, but saw nothing. I checked again while backing and stopped when I saw the rear of a truck quickly heading for my driver side window. If my window had been down, I could have touched the back of the truck without sticking my full forearm out. I blew my horn and the truck stopped. It was a close call. I was spared from a bad circumstance, and I audibly gave thanks for being watched over.
You can probably think of a recent time when you were spared from a bad circumstance because you were being watched over and protected.
Giving thanks,
Sylvia
