I was leaving my Aunt Sue's home quickly, since it was so bitterly cold. I rushed out the door, when my Uncle, said let me stand out here and watch. I yelled back, No it is too cold, I will be ok.
I walked around to get in my car, stopped, saw a man crouched down by my car door. This time yelled, Carson, there is a man here. He came out, asked the man questions, let him go on. His reasoning was he was cold, getting out of the wind. Who knows?
I could have disappeared that night, if my Uncle had not listened to a small voice. It was the only time he had watched me, to see that I was safe almost thirty years ago.
It could have been worse, if I had not had a gaurdian angel watching over me! Listen to that small still voice, it could be life changing.

How frightful!!! I am glad he listened to the small still voice! God is always whispering to us and we need to have our ears open to it! Thanks for reminding us!!!
Very scary!!!
I always listen to that voice ;)
I wouldn't be here today, many times over, if I hadn't ;)
Praise God for HIS spirit.
How peculiar - thank goodness your uncle listened to his instincts (& you to your uncle)
Kim, that must have been so scarey. And the thoughts that must have gone through your mind afterwards....all the ideas about things that could have been.
Your guardian angel was definitely with you that night. I never hesitate to listen to that little voice from within that seems to come from no where.
Hi! Found you on Facebook, you commented on a photo of me and Wilma... good to see another local blogger, I am in Ellijay. Nice to meecha!
This is a true story that happened years ago. It was a crazy night. My friend, Chanta that was much younger than Kim, my cousin, and a couple of years younger than me, had just left on her bicycle to go home to her 100 acre farm next door. Then, I remember Kim starting to leave to go home to her apartment, and for some reason my dad said, "I'll watch you go to your car." He had, not to my knowledge, ever done that before. One reason was, we lived in such a safe rural area, nowhere near a town nor too close to other houses, mostly farms on one side and a small house subdivision on the other side of our small farm, where we knew most everyone in the neighborhood. So, it was a strange place for a person to be hiding behind our cars that night. But,thank goodness, my dad was there, because as Kim walked around to get into her car a man was crouching beside it. She yelled out and my dad went out. My mom told me to get back away from the door. So, I guess the man just left and went his on way after my dad told him too, without a fight or scuffle. But, Kim, my friend, Chanta, me or my mom could have ended up a statistic that we hear of today in the news, if my father hadn't gone with his gut feeling and went out to watch her. The stranger, peeping Tom or whatever he was could have gotten into her car that night and we may have never seen Kim again. So, listen to your heart when you at least expect it. God will always try and protect you, if you will let him. We did hear of a peeping Tom later years that was making his rounds in the area. But, we will never know.
