why cant i remember turning the wheel to get back into my lane

i only started feeling tired 2 minutes before the incident happened.i was very energetic the whole way home besides the last 5 miles

Answer 1

Maybe the semi swerved to get out of your way. Or maybe you did that neat trick in that movie where your car was destroyed and you used mystical powers to reasemble it.

Answer 2

God does work in mysterious ways. You experienced a miracle. In a big way. But think of all the miracles we experience every day. Just being here means that God is thinking about us (and isn't that a miracle?). The sunrise, sunset, a baby being born, a cat's meow, walking, talking, pooping on when we need to. All of these things are miracles. Everyday miracles.

I'm so glad that God took care of you the way you wanted him to. One time, we were on the Kentucky Turnpike, it was snowing and we almost went into a ditch. I actually saw two angles on our front holding us out of the ditch. This was a miracle, too. They happen all the time, much more than you would think. God must not be finished with you yet. God bless you.

Answer 3

There is only one lesson to be learned from this experience....well, maybe two. First, don't ever again drive when you are tired or sleepy. Second, be thankful you are still alive and learn to give thanks for all the small and large wonders in your life. Whether it was an act of God or not is beside the point. I sure wouldn't try something as reckless as driving when exhausted again. If God did save you this time his patience might just run out.

Answer 4

The "clashing" noise you've heard might have been the blood pumping through your veins/arteries near your ears. You woke up soon enough because your body felt the car swerving sideways, which caused your system to increase bloodflow and set free adrenaline because of the stress situation.

Answer 5

i would say not an act of God but his design in you probably were asleep but also your eyes were open and you were able to see and react to the oncoming traffic.

God warns us that unforeseen events can overtake us all. Actually knowing you were tired and instead of pulling off to the side of the road you could of hurt yourself or someone else on the road. If someone were to of died, you could of been blood guilty in Gods, if you were to look that up in your bible.

loud noise could be you dreaming or just something else like s commercial i couldnt say.

Answer 6

If this is an act of god, him saving you from a crash, then all the other actual crashes were acts of god as well, since he could have stopped them too.

If he can stop one, he is responsible for not stopping the others if he has the capacity.

I would apply this logic to any "god saving" scenario.

Answer 7

Or country western song. Isn't there a song called Jesus Took the Wheel? Life doesn't imitate art, it imitates trash.

Answer 8

Thank God! There are holy angels that encamp around us.You had an experience with one.

Answer 9

I'm sure it was your Guardian Angel helped save your life.
A similar thing happened to me. And their is no doubt in my mind, who saved me.

Answer 10

That's right, god sat back and watched millions of people get slaughtered, raped and mutilated in darfur, New Orleans, WWII, etc... but he reached down to wake YOU up just in time. How sweet!
