“Good morning world, as I blend my A Daily Celebration journal reflection in with the adjoining scriptures… please read (Psalm 121:7) This is the guiding light and life changing verse that I have researched and picked to highlight my blog post today. Likewise, please enjoy my coordinating original Merry Mary blog thought that ties the scriptures into my new journal quote which is as follows ( Are you out of control! And making that (need to handle it) inquiry we all know…. over the course of time as you go through life, wrecks, tailspins, and crashes will crack your head, also hurt your heart, as they likewise break your neck, then blow your mind! That’s why, to survive those shattering Facts of Life you need to be careful where you head. Next to guard your insides, also to protect your outsides on the drive through life you must listen to the Warning Signs as you follow the lights that are green, yellow, and Red. Bottom line, to NEVER BE OUT OF CONTROL also to protect your heart, neck, head, mind, Bottom line and Soul… as you survive SATAN’S Collisions, Injuries, and Dark Times. To survive the Tailspins, Wrecks, and Hazards of Life, You need to face the fact that one day or night without even knowing what’s coming around the bend…. you will be involved in one of Life’s Frightening LIFE ENDING WRECKING OUT OF CONTROL TAILSPINS. That’s why, when the light is Green you need to keep heading in the right direction. That means, to stay away from the painful smashing aftermath scene you need to be watching and listening to ALL OF LIFES WARNINGS. Next when your light turns Yellow you need to slow down, to avoid the crash that you won’t even see coming. And when your light turns RED…you need to Stop, Look also Listen as you prepare to go in the right direction. Thats why, TO NEVER BE OUT OF CONTROL you need to know as you avoid the Hazard of Time by following the Guiding signs…. that no matter where you go, the Lord Jesus Christ will guard your heart from all Evil, as Heaven keeps your head on the right road, while Salvation protects your soul. And these things are good to know, because when you know how to stop the Tailspin, and end the Wreck Jesus Christ will make sure you are Not Out of Control ) Now, as you read the complete blog that has been shared in the writing below…. while thinking along these bottom lines, as you know there are many DIFFERENT kinds of Wrecks of Life! That’s why, also knowing that there are a lot of different kinds of WARNING SIGNS. Likewise realizing that there are a lot of different kinds of DARK TIMES! With all those IN-sights leading to the need to SURVIVE Something in your life! Yesterday I was writing about the WARNING SIGNS and the DARK TIMES that will be leading to the death of your Soul’s timeline. So, knowing that the Wreck of Life can happen to anybody at any time. I want to share a time with you that was leading me to some WARNING SIGNS and the NEED TO SURVIVE my DARK TIME…. So really Slipping and Sliding in a REAL WRECK OF LIFE ON SATAN’S BLACK ICE….COME WITH ME and I WILL TAKE YOU TO A DARK FRIGHTENING TIME…. WHEN I IGNORED THE WARNING SIGNS! And that REAL CAR WRECK happened RIGHT AFTER I FIRST MET BLACK ICE! So on my away back home, NOT knowing WHAT BLACK ICE WAS….. While STILL TALKING ABOUT SURVIVING THE FACTS OF LIFE! My story will BEGIN with the Start also Stop of my Heart…. Yes I will start my post today with a memory of a REALLY DARK TIME WHEN I IGNORED THE WARNING SIGNS. And this morning I will be writing about the time when in the middle of a NO LIGHT DAY THAT LOOKED LIKE NIGHT my HEART ALMOST STOPPED, and I ALMOST RAN OUT OF TIME, and THINGS TO SAY. So, IN MIDDLE OF A SNOWY WHITE OUT…. where the sun blocked out my sight……. GOING BACK IN MY MIND I will be Returning to a HORRIFYING time in my life. WHEN I TOO WAS NOT LISTENING TO THE WARNING SIGNS! And in that DARK TIME as I was preparing to die…. this blog post will start on a morning when my breath was questionable, and there was NO SIGHT! Thats why, to make sure that you LISTEN TO YOUR WARNING SIGNS on a DAY WHERE THERE WAS NO LIGHT…. This story about SURVIVAL will always be necessary because it will lead to some great insight. Therefore, on your away back home, I want to share this DARK TIME WITH YOU. So… you TOO will know how important it is to KNOW JESUS CHRIST…..Yes that is great INSIGHT…. BECAUSE NONE OF YOU KNOW WHEN YOU ARE GOING TO DIE!! Meaning that NONE OF YOU KNOW WHEN YOU WILL RUN OUT OF TIME. NO NONE OF YOU KNOW WHEN YOU WILL MEET YOUR BLACK ICE! So…WANTING YOU TO SURVIVE YOUR DARK TIMES, while thinking about the WRECKS OF LIFE….on the day I first met BLACK ICE…. I still remember very clearly the TIME… not that long ago, when I was innocently getting ready to go to work and slave while working at a job that was not very nice! And being new to the state where we just moved…. in that boring mundane drive. That’s when I ignored the icy DARK TIME DANGEROUS BLACK ICE ON THE HIGHWAY STAY AT HOME TODAY…. WARNING SIGNS….. And even though the WARNING SIGNS were being URGENTLY BLASTED and Broadcasted on the radio involving those at work and play! Not knowing what BLACK ICE WAS in any way. Also NOT KNOWING THAT BLACK ICE WARNING meant… IF I EXPERIENCED A WRECK IN LIFE…. THAT I COULD DIE!…I got into my car anyway as I turned on the headlights! NO THAT WAS NOT A GOOD IDEA! And Yes, I had heard the URGENT WARNINGS coming from the radio announcer telling the Windy City that today there was INVISABLE BLACK ICE on the Highway. But in that WARNING ABOUT SLIPPING AND SLIDING being a Stupid newcomer to the area needing to get into my car and to go to work that day…that WARNING did not go very far! Because I did not Understand what the news reporter was saying! So, NOT KNOWING THAT I COULD DIE IN A WRECK OF LIFE…. IF I MET BLACK ICE. I had no idea at all….. What BLACK ICE even was! That’s why, never knowing much of anything, when I started out on my driving route going to work……… I was very Surprised to find the SAFE SLOW GO back path where I always went was closed off for BLACK ICE reasons….. AND NOT BEING ABLE TO SEE THE INVISABLE BLACK ICE…BECAUSE BLACK ICE IS THE KIND OF ICE…. THAT CAN NOT BEEN SEEN BY YOUR EYES. NOT REALIZING THAT BLACK ICE BLENDS IN WITH THE BLACK WET PAVEMENT. By not LISTENING TO THAT STAY AT HOME BLACK ICE WARNING SIGN. All of a SUDDEN…. LIKE I WAS IN THE MIDDLE OF A TERRIFYING DREAM. I was SKIDDING around a BLIND ICY bend. And in the same FRIGHTENING TURN OF EVENTS with nowhere to GO…… I was equally stunned that my NICE, EASY,SAFE, SLOW AND GO route had just been blocked OFF behind me. So Unable to TURN AROUND OR GO HOME, SEEING THE ROAD CLOSED. ALL OF A SUDDEN THERE WAS ONLY ONE WAY TO GO…..And that WAY SEEMED TO BE VERY UNFAMILAR, FRIGHTENING, AND LIKEWISE VERY ICY! SO, NOT LISTENING TO THE WARNING SIGNS…. that BLACK ICE was not A FRIEND OF MINE! Because all of those DEADLY WARNING SIGNS meant….. That I was being forced out on A VERY BUSY HIGHWAY while driving on a very TERRIFYING UNFAMILAR race track place….. That I wasn’t very comfortable with in anyway!! And leaving the SAFETY of the Familiar SAFE SLOW and GO back SIDE road. While going out to a VERY UNFAMILAR Highway nothing was going Right! Because all a sudden IN THAT DARK TIME, out of nowhere experiencing great FRIGHT ON A DAY THAT LOOKED LIKE BLACK NIGHT….. Driving on a highway that likewise looked like black WET tar…. SKIDDING SIDEWAYS ON THE BLACK ICE AND NOT GETTING VERY FAR ! I LOST CONTROL OF THE CAR!!!! Then in that instant, while all four of my tires were SLIPPING AND SLIDING ON INVISABLE BLACK ICE … That’s when I REALLY found out what FRIGHT AND BLACK ICE were all about! And that’s ALSO when, on that DARK DAY THAT WAS BLACK AS NIGHT not that long ago. UP CLOSE AND PERSONALLY I actually met the WHITE ICE THAT TURNED BLACK…. BELOW THE SNOW….. And WITH NO WHERE TO GO! NOT HEADING THE WARNING SIGNS… LEADING TO SURVIVAL! I personally ALMOST DIED IN A WRECK OF LIFE! And as, I was meanly greeted by the DEMONIC sheet of INVISABLE BLACK ICE THAT WAS SURROUNDING ME. In that INVISABLE BLACK ICE MISERY. The white ice Sinisterly and Sneakily camouflaged itself on the Black tar mac road….. And FACING ANOTHER VERY DARK TIME IN MY LIFE…. WHEN I DID NOT LISTEN TO THE WARNING SIGNS. NOT LISTENING TO THE BLACK ICE WARNING SIGNS My car went TOTALLY OUT OF CONTROL. And going into an UNCONTROLLABLE SPIN OUT. THAT’S WHEN I HAD KNOWN… AS I LOST ALL CONTROL… THAT I WAS RUNNING OUT OF TIME! I also wondered how MANY OTHER PEOPLE WOULD DIE…AS MY OUT-OF-CONTROL SKIDDING SPINNING CAR HAD COME INTO THEIR WRECKED LIFE! Happily, however, as my car started TWISTING AND TURNING across ALL FIVE lanes of traffic in that HORRIBLE TAILSPIN leading to a HORRIFIC WRECK OF LIFE…. Amazingly I DID NOT HIT any other cars ON A DAY THAT LOOKED AS DARK AS NIGHT… SO INSTEAD OF HITTING THEIR CARS….AFTER CROSSING 5 LANE OF TRAFFIC….I PLOWED INTO THE CONCRETE BARRIER FOUR TIMES!!!! AND AS THE CAR HIT ITS NOSE AND BEHIND, HIT ITS NOSE AND BEHIND, HIT ITS NOSE AND BEHIND, HIT ITS NOSE AND BEHIND….. FOUR TIMES!!!! WHILE THE CONCRETE BARRIER TOOK OFF THE WHOLE SIDE OF CAR. INCLUDING REMOVING THE DOOR ON MY SIDE, WHILE EXPOSING THE LIGHT OUTSIDE!… AT LEAST NOT JUMPING THE CONCRETE BARRIER TO THE OTHER SIDE OF TRAFFIC. Likewise, NOT HITTING SOMEBODY ELSE’S CAR ON MY SIDE….BY NOT KILLING ANYBODY ELSE…THAT PART OF THE WRECK WAS ALRIGHT! BECAUSE THAT MEANT I WAS THE ONLY ONE WHO WOULD DIE…..And even though that was GOOD NEWS….And, even though MIRACULOUSLY the OTHER CARS DID NOT HIT ME that day….. As all of the other PETRIFIED Drivers were each FRANTICALLY GETTING OUT OF MY WAY!!!!….. Nevertheless, IN MY ALMOST COMATOSED STATE The lights to my life were going out on LIFES HIGHWAY! Because, UNABLE TO CONTROL THE SLIDE OF LIFE MYSELF, I WAS GOING TO DIE! BUT WAIT, NOT wanting to die, as I was fighting the wheel and steering the tires, I was ALSO trying to stay alive.. BUT being totally OUT OF CONTROL AS THE LAST COLD WIND WAS BLOWING. While Badly CRASHING AND SMASHING into the concrete Meridian on that very Icy, Cold, Bitter Grey, Winters day WHILE HITTING THE CONCRETE BARRIER 4 TIMES. WITH ME NOT HEEDING THE WARNING SIGNS. IN THAT OUT CONTROL SIGHT I was crashing front, back, front, back, front, back, front, back 4 TIMES while going the WRONG WAY IN LIFE. And feeling just like I was on the tilt a whirl I realized I REALLY WAS GOING TO DIE! Happily, however even though completely TTTTTTERRIFIED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! In that second enduring the arrest of breath…. connected to the WRECK OF LIFE…..IN THAT DARK TIME that HAD ALMOST SCARED ME TO DEATH… I was THANKFUL I WAS READY TO DIE… since I WAS ALSO READY TO FLY AWAY TO PARADISE…. AND THAT WAS GREAT COMFORTING INSIGHT!!! Because on my away back home, I realized that my SOUL and I WILL ALWAYS Eternally belong to JESUS CHRIST…. That means then and now I already passed the SAVED test THAT WILL TAKE ME TO PARADISE….So, KNOWING THAT MY LIGHT WOULD NEVER DIE! While holding onto the Divine wings of the Angels I was totally prepared to Fly! Thats why, like I said in my last post while holding hands with JESUS CHRIST. I ALREADY REALIZED THAT JESUS CHRIST WILL ALWAYS MAKE SURE….. I CAN STAND ON ANY COLOR OF ICE……. So IN THE WRECK OF LIFE…I KNEW EVEN WHEN MY BODY DIED….THAT MY SOUL WAS Prepared to STAY ALIVE AND FLY! And knowing that there was NO WAY I WAS GOING TO SURVIVE THAT WRECK OF LIFE! I seriously just CLOSED MY EYES AND RAISED MY ARMS TO THE SKY. Because I DID NOT WANT TO SEE ME DIE! And in that SAVED MOMENT….. As I have always done before, still do, and will keep doing forevermore….. Within a second found in A TIME OF FEAR AND PAIN….. AT THE END OF EVERYTHING KNOWING THAT I WAS DYING….. IN A PRAYER…I called out…. JESUS CHRIST’S NAME!!! …. And on my away back home, FINDING PEACE INSIDE…WHILE KNOWING I WAS HEADING FOR A GREAT BEGINNING CALLED PARADISE! I was prepared to SURVIVE THE WRECK OF LIFE…. That’s why, being on HEAVEN’S Side I was ready to go UPWARD After I Died. And knowing that there will always be Angel wings standing CLOSE by…. that will let my soul fly! Even though my halo had always been, and still is…. Slightly Bent……. I was then, and I am still today totally prepared to go TO PARADISE ON HEAVENS HIGHWAY! THAT’S WHY, AS I QUIT TRYING TO CONTROL THE WRECK OF LIFE AND THE DARK TIMES ON MY OWN! Long before the song Jesus Take the Wheel was born…. I TOOK MY SHAKING VICE GRIP HANDS OFF OF THE WHEEL! And on my away back home, holding my cupped PRAYING hands High UP in the SKY! While DEFEATING FEAR found in the DARK TIMES! I found the PEACE INSIDE that I needed waiting there! And needing comfort Before I Died……I felt like… a lonely child asking for her father to pick her up and take her HOME with HIM into the sky! That’s likewise when, in that DIVINE moment, while leaving the road…… I started lifting up my swollen CLOSED crying eyes to Heaven’s home! BUT WAIT!!!!! IT WAS NOT YET MY TIME TO GO! So, in that second as soon as I called out JESUS CHRIST’S name, while preparing to go upstairs AT THE BEGINNING.. The falling SNOW, THEN THE HAIL, TURNED TO RAIN. And just like THAT THE BLACK ICE DISAPPEARED AGAIN! That means, the BLACK ICE EVAPORATED….. AND TO MY SURPRISE I DID NOT DIE! Following that TURN OF EVENTS the car FINALLY quit CRASHING AND SMASHING. Next the car… or WHAT WAS LEFT OF IT abruptly STOPPED SLIPPING AND SLIDING! And in that SILENT SECOND the only noise left was of me Bawling, Sobbing, and CRYING! BUT AS I STOPPED CRYING….in that next Quiet moment I realized I was still on Earth Alive! HOWEVER, not knowing if I was Broken, Battered, or Bleeding, indeed many SURVIVAL instincts were crossing my mind! So, COMING OUT OF MY COMA STATE. While trying to figure out what happened… I realized that I had just been involved in A WRECK OF LIFE! And facing another DARK TIME! One thing was clear with THE CAR TOTALLY WRECKED also Devastatingly DEMOLISHED and with the steering wheel pressing into my CHEST AND SIDE… AS NOT EXPECTED… WHEN I OPENED MY EYES…. I HAD NOT DIED!!! That’s when, as the seat belt was cutting into my chest and thigh. While the rear trunk was sitting in my lap…..I understood by the Grace of God That I had Survived ONE OF THE WRECKS OF LIFE…. But still not knowing how to GET HELP, while maybe BLEEDING TO DEATH …. with NO CAR SIDE LEFT, and FROST BITE, AND SHOCK SETTING IN….. I felt like I was gravely hurt ……while sitting at the end…. of an Unfamiliar Road…. So even though I had NOT died in the immediate crash…..I realized LEFT OUTSIDE IN THE SNOW AND ICE…with the car resting on the concrete where the BLACK ICE had once been…. WITH NO SIDE OF THE CAR LEFT, IF I FROZE TO DEATH…. OR BLED TO DEATH…. OR IF THE CAR EXPLODED AND I WAS CREMATED INSIDE….. THAT MIGHT STILL BE THE END OF MY TOMBSTONE LINE!!!!!… To be CONTINUED…. Okay realizing you have read my novels….. You also know that I am a master of cliff hangers! So, appreciating the effect and AFTER affect…. that CLIFF HANGERS HAVE ONE EVERYBODYS LIFE….. WITH ALL OF US NEEDING TO SURVIVE THE DARK TIMES! I am going to leave you HANGING while wondering about one of the WRECKS OF LIFE….. Yes I will leave you hanging on the cliff…. HANGING… Until tomorrow when I will finish my true story one more time. So come back tomorrow….And I will finish this story … that obviously has a happy ending Since I am still here writing about it going along my way! But until then wondering how BADLY I WAS HURT… I will leave you with these healing thoughts as you too…. will one day be facing THE LAST WRECK IN YOUR LIFE….. IN YOUR DARK TIMES…Have you ever found yourself on an UN-FAMILAR ROAD? HAVE YOU EVER FELT ALONE? DO YOU KNOW HOW TO GO HOME! And experiencing a Stop of the Heart?
