Thankful for the Lubbock Police Department

So today was a new experience for me. I was in what some people would refer to as a wreck. Personally though, when I think "wreck", I think smoke, fire, blood. Ya know, the dramatic stuff. But lemme tell you about today...

I was driving down 19th street (a very busy one for those who don't know Lubbock) and 2 cars ahead of me, a green jeep decides to make a u-turn while going about 40. I saw what the jeep was doing, as well as the truck ahead of me and behind me, so we were all able to react quickly. However, this was not the case for the 4th car behind all of us.

She was speeding and didn't see the jeep turning like the rest of us did. While we were able to react to the jeep, she could only react to the car right in front of her. Anyways, her little white car hit the big red truck in front of her, which in turned hit me, and I returned the favor by hitting the other big truck in front of me.

Now, out of all 4 cars and 5 people involved, only one car was totaled and there were no major injuries. PRAISE JESUS!!! This is where my thanks to the police department comes in. They arrived in no time and made sure I and everyone else was okay. They did their routine procedures and I was out in about 30 minutes. They made the process smooth and reassured my confidence. Which is nice, since my mommy and daddy weren't there to tell me it'd be okay.

I'm so glad they took care of me the way they did. They erased my fears and helped set me back on my feet. Sounds a lot like what God does for us, eh?? Anyways, thanks goes out to the police department today. Remember to buckle up kids :)
