Hand of Protection

God protected me in a most amazing way in a motorcycle accident with a car rapide*. A car rapide paused half way onto the berm of the road and, without looking first abruptly opened its driver side door as I was passing. I was thrown off my bike and into the oncoming lane of traffic and another car rapide approached. I went under the front of the car rapide and it stopped with me lodged just in front of the axle. Miraculously, I have only scrapes and bruises and a cracked helmet. We all praise God for his hand of protection during this frightening incident.
