Many are the afflictions of the righteous, but the LORD delivers him out of them all. He guards all his bones; not one of them is broken. Evil shall slay the wicked, and those who hate the righteous shall be condemned. Psalm 34:19-21

Life holds many afflictions along its path, and I have suffered through them for 78 years. Even when I was lost, God was there. I remember many of them. One day, I was riding my motorbike and ran an intersection right into an oncoming car!
I hit the fender right in front of the windshield, and as I was thrown over the hood, I remember saying, "Oh God!" I landed with my arm stretched out and sat up. My legs were bleeding; my arm was broken, but if I had hit the car a few seconds before, I would have been killed hitting the post. The driver of the car and some gas station attendants took me into the station, sat me down in the middle of the room, and continued their work.
After a while, I began to be in pain and asked when the ambulance would be there, and they said, "You want an ambulance?" UGH, it just wasn't my day! Anyway, I survived, and I believe God had protected me as He was with me in the air as I flew over that car! I am sure you have had many things happen to you, too, and God intervened on your behalf! He is an awesome God!
The LORD redeems the soul of His servants, and none of those who trust in Him shall be condemned. Psalm 34:22
