Life changes a person. Sometimes for the good sometimes for the worst. At least tempararily. Really, its up to the person and the choices that they make.
This last year my life was shook to the core when we were invovled in a bad car accident. Life seemed to stop. Everything changed as I knew it. For those of you thinking you will wait till later to make a decision for Christ, sometimes life can end in a split second.
I often find myself talking about life before the accident and after the accident. It was a traumatic experience. One I am sure the evil one meant to kill and destroy people in and one God used for a lot of good.
Don't gloat about how you are indestructable around me. You like anyone else can die in a split second. If you are not careful with your decisions, they can affect someone else's life greatly. Stop at stop signs, even if no one else is around. Who knows, you may just save someone's life. The seemingly harmless decisions you make do impact others even if you don't realize it.
For months after the accident, I struggled with the images that came to my mind. My mind played over and over and over again what happened. What could have happened. I struggled with feelings of depression. Then a friend told me to choose to think good stuff to help replace the bad. What you put in can help push out the bad. So I began to read God's word more. I had nothing else I could do. I thought about going for counselling for post traumatic stress disorder, but I never got around to it. I waited for time to heal me, for life to not hurt so bad. Time and God has helped. I value life more.
