It was a taxi ride that will never be forgotten for both the driver and his 87-year-old female passenger. They were driving along peacefully in Wuppertal, a city near Düsseldorf in western Germany, when the 50-year-old man choked on a piece of candy and had a violent coughing fit during which he
lost control of the vehicle and collided with a parked van.
The situation became life-threatening within seconds because he lost consciousness and began to asphyxiate. But the rogue taxi drove on uncontrolled for a further 60 meters until its journey was brought to an end by another collision, this time with a parked VW, police said in a statement.
"The force of the impact presumably dislodged the sweet from his throat so that the driver regained consciousness without any assistance," police said in a statement.
It's amazing how something so awful can have such a positive impact.
Imagine, this driver was saved from choking by crashing his taxi-cab!
Is it possible that this can happen in the spiritual realm as well; to get our eyes off the temporary things of life, and put them on the eternal? It's something to consider the next time we want to blame God for something that seems catastrophic in our lives.
And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose. Romans 8:28 NKJV
Lord, help me to see day by day, that you have my eternal best interest in mind. You never give up, You never stop loving. Thank-you! Amen.
Have a great day and God bless!
