A Lady In France

Life in the Trenches – Chapter 4

This book is now available on Amazon, as of December 8, 2013.

“For he will command his angels concerning you to guard you in all your ways; they will lift you up in their hands, so that you will not strike your foot against a stone.”

Psalm 91:11-12

CHAPTER FOUR

I don’t know how many tragedies I’ve been saved from – how many near-misses I have escaped from that I never even saw coming. I imagine it must be that way for each one of us, surrounded by that cloud of angels we cannot see, whose sole command is to guard us in all our ways, whose obedience to God is so absolute that they hedge us in and close their eyes to the foolishness of our ways. Are not all angels ministering spirits sent to serve those who will inherit salvation? (Hebrews 1:14)

So I don’t know about the tragedies that I have escaped from, I only know about the tragedies that have tackled me, but have not consumed me. This, too, is a gift from God.

    I knew you were in an accident, but thought you were in a car! You are soooo lucky to be here, Jennie. What a nightmare for you, but look how far you’ve come.

    I like the way you have begun and ended the chapters with your perspective from now, and the way the calls have been at the end of chapters, kind of marking those periods of your life. Draws me on to want to know more!
