Mom and Daughter Share Life in Retirement Community, it is Quite Special | Firefighters Save Little League Game and Give Kids a Memory

https://api.omny.fm/orgs/5e27a451-e6e6-4c51-aa03-a7370003783c/clips/cfe91762-7a8a-4981-912a-b48e00e4296a/transcript

A Texas woman survived a terrifying highway accident when a three-foot piece of rebar flew through her windshield and struck her glasses without leaving a scratch. She was driving through Flint, Texas, while delivering Instacart orders when a utility truck passed in the opposite direction and a piece of rebar came loose, flying directly toward her car. She had no time to react or move out of the way. The rebar sliced vertically through the windshield, hit her glasses, and landed in her lap, leaving her with only minor scratches. EMTs who responded to the scene told her she should not have survived the impact. She credits her survival entirely to God, saying she has no explanation for how she walked away unharmed.

Ponder

God can protect us in moments when there is no time to react and no way to help ourselves.

Scripture 

“For he will give you into the care of his angels to keep you wherever you go.” Psalm 91:11

AND

A simple wrong number turned into a lifelong friendship between two strangers decades apart in age. Lauren Stevens, 24, began receiving text messages on her work phone meant for someone else, all addressed to "Vern Dog." Curious, she searched online and discovered the messages were meant for Verner, a 72-year-old San Francisco photographer who had spent decades traveling the world behind a camera. What started as a mix-up grew into a genuine connection as emails turned into phone calls, phone calls turned into video chats, and eventually the two were spending time together in person, singing karaoke and making TikToks together. As Verner struggled financially in an increasingly digital world, Lauren stepped in to help by sharing his photography online and starting a GoFundMe that raised more than $40,000 in his support. What began as a wrong number became a rare and meaningful friendship that changed both of their lives.

Ponder

True friendship does not check birth certificates, and it can arrive through the most unexpected circumstances, including a simple wrong number.

Scripture

"A friend loves at all times." Proverbs 17:17
