My Glasses

My husband and I were in a bad accident a few weeks ago, but we’ve been praising God for His hand of protection on us, as we walked away only with scrapes, bruises, and soreness.

A few days before the accident, as I was packing for a family trip, I came across an old pair of glasses I hadn’t seen in a long time.  I was thinking I hadn’t seen or touched those glasses in at least 3 years. For whatever reason, I decided to open the case and put on the glasses. I was so shocked at how well I could see that I threw them in my suitcase and went about my business. You have to understand, I’ve never considered taking an old pair of glasses on a trip and it’s rare for me to see a set lying around. I never give it a thought.

Fast forward to the day of the wreck. After we had gotten home after being checked out at the hospital, Randy handed me my glasses he had recovered from our vehicle. They were unwearable. I knew then that God had provided me with another set that I easily found in my suitcase. I was so thankful for God’s provision, even down to my glasses.

Recently, I went to the eye doctor to get a new pair of glasses. It turns out the glasses I had found and that I could see so clearly out of were from 2018. I’ve had 2 prescriptions since then. I truly believe God provided me those glasses and the ability to see clearly out of them. Praise be to God for His provision, even down to a pair of glasses.
