Slow Down: A Miracle Story

Impressed to slow down on a rainy night for no clear reason, one driver argued with the feeling, wanting to catch a green light instead — and moments later was struck by a car running the intersection at speed. This miracle story shows how even partial obedience to God's prompting can make a life-saving difference. Driving home on a rainy Hobart evening, Dr. John Ashton felt a strong impression to slow down despite already being under the speed limit, and reasoned with God that he wanted to make the upcoming green light instead. He compromised, slowing only slightly, and was struck broadside by a car running a red light through the intersection — a Datsun that spun completely around before driving off. Because he'd slowed even a little, the impact was survivable rather than a full T-bone collision at speed. Dr. Ashton reflects on how fully following God's prompting, rather than partially, might have avoided the accident altogether.
