God Knows

As many of you know, I slipped on a walk in Canada and broke my left wrist in 2 parts. Something amazing happened shortly thereafter. We had no idea that I had broke anything. I was in great pain but there were no bones sticking out. Where I fell was very remote and we knew there was no way I could get help before we got home to Columbus.

I went into shock and once I came out it my family helped get me into some shade. Once they got me as comfortably as they could, a Pastor and his wife stopped by. They asked if I was ok and asked my parents if they wanted them to find help. He then told us he was a Pastor and asked us if we wanted him to pray for me and asked me what my name was. He then went onto to pray for me and then his wife. Mind you we had no idea I broke anything. In the remote area to have a Pastor and his wife there, the chances of that are pretty slim.


Some other miracles that day.


1. My sister in law Andrea was with me when I fell. She didn't leave me once not even to get my parents since I was going into shock. She knew my parents would catch on so just stayed with me.


2. I was able to hike back to the campsite.


3. I was able to go home all the way from Canada like this.


As I was taking a walk around the campground that night I realized that God was trying to teach me something. He showed me that if He cares enough when I hurt myself to place the right people in my life how much more He is there for me when I feel discouraged and want more my life. I learned He knows what He's doing- whether it being a broken wrist or looking for a job.


I had a pretty long recovery though a little shorter sine I had the surgery. I probably can't go back to COSI till 4 weeks. I know that there is a reason for this especially with all the divine intervention. I learned something I'll never forget especially when job hunting. God knows what he is doing. I have the story to prove it.
