the tire

I've showed this picture to so many friends already, but it is still a great story. Last week, a friend and myself and our 5 kids, made a road trip. It was a long trip, 15hrs one way. Around midnight I heard a pop and flapping coming from under the car. I screamed, my friend woke up my friend from her nice restful sleep screaming and I pulled over thinking it was a blowout. I was in the middle of now where, no moon, no light. I used my cellphone for a flashlight, couldn't see anything wrong with the tires and nothing hanging down from the bottom of the car. I got back on the road and the car drove ok, it shook a little but it did fine. I made it to the next town, went to a gas station and looked all over my car again. Still couldn't see anything wrong so I decided to try and make it to my stop for the night, 300 miles away. The car still shook a little but handled well. Made it to my hotel. The next day I pulled in to a garage just to make sure everything was ok. They looked around my car and saw my tire. When they showed me my tire, I started shaking all over. I did have a blowout that night, but somehow God held that tire together and it didn't even lose air and I made it another 300 miles on that tire! No damage done to the rim or the car, or our lives. Thank you Lord again, for protecting me from my stupidity.
