This is a again a back track...
I'm sure you have experienced God's protection in your life. Everyday, we always pray for protection. You'll never know what would happen next but thank God that He is always with us to take care of us and protect us.
Here is an experience that we'll never forget. We were so close to experience something terrible in our lives but, God protected us.
Our house is just a 3-5 minutes ride to one of the malls in the city, Carrefour. We would often joke and tell our friends that Carrefour is like living room because if we're not in our house then you'll surely find us there. Whenever we ran out of bread or milk, even if a 7-11 store is just nearby but, we'll purposely go to Carrefour to buy the bread. Sometimes, even if we don't have anything to buy at all, we just go there and simply hang out.
On one particular night , three years ago, our family were just at home the whole day. So our family planned that we would go to Carrefour after our dinner. At 8:40 my HUbby asked me to get ready so that we could go out. Suddenly, I didn't feel like going out anymore and told him we'll just stay home. This was really unusual since I love to go around in the malls. My Hubby didn't insist and we just stayed back. At 11 pm, when I was putting our baby to sleep, my Hubby was downstairs watching the tv when it was interrupted by the news. He immediately called me and there we found out that the same mall which we were supposed to go to that night was bombed at exactly 9pm. I had goose bombs all over when we watched the news, saw the people got hurt and blood all over the place. It was also reported that apart from several people seriously injured, there were 2 people who died from the incident. I couldn't but help thank God from keeping our family safe. Our daughter was only 11 months old at that time.
I kept on thinking that if we got ready at 8:40. It'll only take us 15 mins to get dressed and another 5 mins to get to Carrefour, then we would have been in that exact spot ( the main entrance) were the bomb exploded. Wow! I couldn't help but see God's sovereign Hand moved in our lives once again. We were so closed to get hurt and be traumatized by terrible events but once again He kept us safe.
Lesson of the day: When are with God, we are always safe in His arms. Thank you Lord!

Thank God for this! We wouldn't be able to imagine if something happened to you and your family! God really protected your family. I felt bad when I heard the news. I didn't imagine Thailand will have bombings.
I've experienced this kind of thing several times also in my life, almost got run over by a car, almost drowned, almost lost my life. God is really good, His hand of protection is always upon us. May God's favor continue to abound in you and in your life's family!
Btw, hope you don't mind, I'm tagging you...
