“Yesterday, around 4pm, our car caught fire on the 3rd Mainland Bridge and burned to the ground.
It was a shocking and painful experience, but we’re incredibly grateful that the driver made it out safely. No lives were lost, and that’s what truly matters.
Moments like this remind us how quickly things can change and how unimportant material things become in the face of life itself.
We’re not sharing this for sympathy but to remind someone that things can be replaced, but lives cannot.
We’re choosing to remain thankful to God for protection, perspective, and the quiet strength to keep going.
If you’re navigating a sudden loss of any kind, we hope this reminds you: we can rebuild. We can begin again and find the strength to keep going.
One breath, one prayer, one step at a time.
We give thanks in all things.
THANK YOU JESUS!!!
Thank you to everyone who stopped to help”.
