God is in Control

Today we had quite an experience. We had decided to go over to Tannehill State park for a little while, and we were driving along Greyhill Road, about 2 miles from our home. All of a sudden we noticed a car coming along very rapidly, and swerving all over the road. William tried to get over, but just at the last second, the car hit the left rear of our car, then kept going at what seemed to be full speed, and out of sight past us. Praise the Lord, we were all ok, and William got out to walk up the road and check on the people who were in the other car. We were able to flag down a passing motorist and get them to call the police. As it turned out, the driver was a handicapped woman who had been driving her relative (either daughter or granddaughter) home from work and had fallen asleep at the wheel. When their car left the road, amazingly it did not flip or hit anything, although there was potential for these things to have happened. We felt so blessed and grateful to God that no one was hurt. The paramedics came and took the other driver to the hospital, just to have everything checked out, but she seemed to be fine.Her relative was also fine. It is so great to know that God is in control, not only of that, but EVERY situation!!
