Mighty Hands

I did not remember how many accidents I have experienced, regardless it because of my fault or someone else, but through all of these experiences I learnt that God helps all the time.

A miracle two days before the final Senior High School exam 1997 happened. As usual, I prepare all of things to face it and also checking the place where the exam will be held with Anna – a friend and neighbor. We always go to school together with her motorbike.

Everything seemed perfect in that Saturday morning, no rush, and no bad traffic at all; Anna and I went to school. It just about 2 km of 6 km on the way, a group of ‘white & grey uniform’ students went across the street. They were Technical High School students.

I was slowing down the bike when a man was doubtful crossing the street. Franticly I turned my bike away from him, but boom…gosh it was too late!

Fell over from the bike got us minor injuries. Bad bruises all over our hands and legs, so poignant...ugghhh so was the man. Yet worst, Anna got to wear eyeglasses until now…so sorry Anna for that. But we had to continue our ride to school…O God, it was so painful.

Some teachers blamed us for that incident when we arrived at school. Yes we knew that two more days we are facing the final exam…but we were careless. After getting the treatment, we continue the study…

Thanks God we were okay, only minor injuries, so we could face the final exam on Monday. In fact, we got good marks in the result and could continue to learn in university. God’s mighty hands had proofed once again!
