AFTER THE ACCIDENT I was thinking about all the things I do now that I didn't do before my car accident. I play new instruments---synth, congas and symphonic recorder. I sing solos. I paint and help support my family with my paintings. I started a new business.I always made my own purses, but now I design and sell handbags, diaper bags, cell phone covers, etc. I compose music. I tried and tried to write music before, but it always came out a jumble. Now it's real music. I have a book published. I joined a Christian rock band.(A lot of people were surprised at that one) I ride a bike. Yep, now that I don't walk as well, I'm riding a bike again. I couldn't have done that before the accident because I was too heavy. I lost 100 lbs.---that was the hard one  I learned that more than just one church is going to Heaven, which I suspected, but wasn't sure of before. I found a congregation where they didn't try to change my musical style. They have actually been praying for me to come along. I became much more empathetic and sympathetic. I learned to wait, while at the same time never giving up. Thank you, God. I didn't enjoy the accident. I still cry about my . But, like Abraham, I know I can trust you to keep your promises. And I know that you know what is best. So---in everything...thank you, God.

God makes all things beautiful again...and gives us beauty for the ashes. What a testimony to God's faithfulness you are! He is no fool if he should choose to lose the things he cannot keep to gain what he can never lose.....Jim Elliott Deena
