“We were involved in an accident on the Skyway. Fortunately, all three cars involved avoided any casualties, and we are all okay," Sarah said. 

She was thankful for the "second chance" that she got after figuring in the road incident. 

"I'm not sharing this for you to feel bad for us. I'm sharing this story because this year has been the toughest of my life, yet I am reminded of God's goodness, His second chances, and His promises. 

"Things could have been much worse, yet my family and I are alive and well," she said.
