The Car That Drove Itself: Miracle Story
from Miracles in the 21st Century · host 3ABN Australia Radio
A three-ton vehicle with nobody behind the wheel rolled through a garden, a pool fence, and straight into a swimming pool — yet somehow this chaotic disaster turned into a miracle story with an $8,000 silver lining. Ernie Hufnagl calls it one of his strangest modern day miracle experiences yet. When his son's girlfriend accidentally started an unattended troop carrier in the backyard, the massive vehicle ran over her foot, made an inexplicable 90-degree turn, and drove straight through a pool fence into the water. No one was seriously hurt, and remarkably, the family discovered their car insurance — mistakenly thought to be liability-only — was fully comprehensive. After Ernie repaired the pool himself and even scored a free matching fence from a neighbor, the insurance payout left them thousands of dollars ahead. Ernie shares why he believes staying calm through chaos, rather than reacting in anger, invited God's blessing into a disaster. In this episode, you will hear: How an unattended three-ton vehicle ended up in the family's swimming pool The insurance mix-up that turned into an unexpected financial blessing The neighbor's fence "coincidence" that saved thousands in repair costs Why Ernie believes reacting without anger opened the door for God to work Watch all the episodes on our Youtube channel at this link: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL65y7saKkuQ2TB-CeuL-Ewag2dXWlz-A8 Music Credits: Clouds by Ethereal 88 | ethereal88.bandcamp.com Music promoted by www.free-stock-music.com Creative Commons / Attribution 4.0 International (CC BY 4.0)
