Psalm 91:11-12 "“For He will command His angels concerning you to guard you in all your ways. On their hands they will bear you up, lest you strike your foot against a stone.”
This is one example of the many that John told me about. John had a cub riding mower which had the steering bars that went across the front of his body. He loved his mower and loved cutting our grass and our neighbors' grass.
One day, as he was mowing the back yards and was moving closer to the lake that is behind our home, the unthinkable happened! Our neighbor was having his pool serviced and the technician was draining some of the water from the pool. The water was coming out of a hose the was camouflaged in the grass. John never saw it.
The mower slid on the water and started to fall backwards into the lake! Because of the steering bars across his body, John knew that he could not get off the mower before it fell into the lake. He knew that if it did, he would be drowned beneath the weight of the mower. As the mower moved into a perpendicular position and started to go backwards, John said that it seemed as if a strong hand pressed down on the front of the mower and saved John's life.
A few years prior, John's son had died at the age of 27. He was always kind of a strongman, and John felt that the Lord sent his son as the angel that saved John's life.
The mower was so stuck in the mud of the lake, that John needed to use his 1976 International Scout to pull it out of the lake. The mower needed a part to get it running again, so John went to Home Depot to get it. He was telling the salesperson about his experience and the salesperson told John that he had recently heard a similar story, except with a much more tragic ending.
I am so grateful that the Lord sent His angels to protect and save John in a most impossible situation.
Think about your life. I know that God is protecting us even when we are not aware of it. I also know that if we start to look for those situations we will realize how many times God has been there for us.
