MORE THAN A MIRACLE (1)

On a quiet and sunny Sunday morning, I was on my way to the seaside for my usual weekly sports and picnic with friends. As I moved out of the city, I took a shortcut through an industrial area, not realizing that it had developed massive evangelical churches that attracted huge throngs of parishioners specifically for Sunday masses that lasted for hours on end. With so much public transport on the road and crowds of children, I had to drive very carefully.

Along the way, there were short concrete bridges crossing small waterways, with solid borders. In my rearview mirror, I observed a busload of families coming at full speed at a distance. I placed my indicator as I slowed further and took my extreme right leaving the road free for him to maintain his speed.

I had just crossed one of those bridges as he approached me at full speed, and I decided to park off the road, for fear he would ram into the back of my car. Then there suddenly was a massive explosion! As he approached the bridge either drunk or distracted, he ran into its high concrete border, his bus rolled over twice across the middle of the bridge blocking all oncoming cars, with blood spattered across all the windows. Looking into my rearview mirror, I couldn’t believe what I saw next, as screams of panic filled the air.

The bus halted at a tangent upside down. The driver and the passengers next to him were drenched in blood. Without shattering and without any blood stains, the windscreen simply popped out as I saw a young baby fly in the air, I rushed immediately out of my car to run back and grab him, but what I saw gave me the shock of my life! I saw the baby landing very slowly in 3 very gentle SEATED bumps as he settled SITTING down in the middle of the road totally UNHARMED! As we all rushed towards him, he started crying from the fear of the gathering crowd! He was intact.

There is no logical explanation for his salvation as there were other dead infants and children on the bus. No one can persuade me that it was a coincidence, as they dragged all the blood-strewn dead bodies out of the car, and the baby was the UNIQUE SURVIVOR! Surely, he has a bright purpose in this world.

That Sunday, I implicitly and irrevocably believed in Guardian Angels, although it is a Biblical declaration I always struggled with.
