Three Jets Avoid Collision!


"3 US Airways Commuter Jets Avoid Last-Second Collision Near Washington, D.C."

Jets, Collision, US Airways, US Airways Express,Reagan National Airport“Three US Airways Express planes, carrying a total of 192 passengers and crew members, were reportedly taking off or landing at Washington's Reagan National Airport when they came within 12 seconds of a mid-air collision."

Wow!  What a story!  Talk about a close call!  I’m so thankful that those 192 men, women and children were able to walk off those planes and into the arms of friends and loved ones.

The thing is, I imagine that while this dangerous, potentially life-ending event was happening, the passengers and most of the crew had no idea what was taking place. 

It makes me wonder how many emotional, physical, and spiritual catastrophes our gracious Lord averts for me every day... and I don’t even realize He’s doing it! 

This makes me want to lift my hands to the Lord and thank Him for His  
lovingly-extended protection, grace, and mercy! 
How about you?

"Hear my cry for mercy as I call to You for help, as I lift up my hands toward Your 
most Holy Place."
Psalm 28:2
"Jesus...said,  Go home to your own people and tell them how much the Lord has
done for you, and how He has had mercy on you."
Mark 5:19
 Living in His grace,

Mary 

I'd love to hear how God has extended His mercy in your life!
