How Did We Get Here

I'm sitting in the ED waiting for results of my twenty year old son's X-rays and scans. It is flashback time, you see, a year an a half ago he was in a car accident that should have ended his life. He was a passenger in a car that hit a tree going 120 miles an hour. Both boys survived. His recovery was long an painful due to a significant concussion. He had just recently fully returned to his pre-accident functioning and personality.

Tonight no one was driving too fast, he was the driver and he just lost control on an icy road. The car is totaled and I wonder how he survived, again.

God must have marvelous plans for him, but right now I am just filled with a desperate mixture of concern and exhaustion. The 'whys' try to creep in, but I push them back with prayer and sheer will. I don't understand, but I do believe.

So any prayers you would like to throw our way would be appreciated. I will update you all soon. Know that I do know that God is still good, all the time. And all the time, God is good.
