In 2010 I was involved in a very bad car accident. One that came close to taking my life. It forever changed my way of thinking, and my priorities going forward.
Article Excerpt:
It’s always hard for me to explain, but it’s as if God allowed (even willed) the accident, so I could finally see my distorted view of what I perceived as normal, so God could create a new normal for me....since my accident (over several years mind you), I have started to concretely realize certain things, all from God:
1. Most of the small problems that we deal with in life, aren’t important at all
2. Our time on earth is short and we should try our best to live it for God, not ourselves.
3. We need to focus on living in the present, and to let go of the past, and stop worrying about the future

I would love to read any stories from fellow readers who have had experiences that brought them closer to God.
God bless,
