 Couple crushed in mangled truck, woman spots smiling man at window. A young woman was riding in her boyfriend's truck when he struck a pillar, going 75 miles per hour crushed in the mangled wreckage, she opened her eyes to see his head had gone through the windshield. His face was covered in blood, and his body lay motionless. Then, she glanced out the window and saw a man smiling at her. Even more shocking than the stranger standing in the road, however, is what was later found at the scene of the crash. Erica Stovall couple crushed in mangled truck woman spot smiling man at window. Erica was riding in the passenger seat of her boyfriend's truck when it drifted off the road and slammed into a pillar at 75 miles per hour, reducing the once formidable vehicle to a heap of scrap metal with Erica trapped inside. The impact should have chopped our bodies in half, but miraculously, she was still alive and even able to open her eyes. Just seconds before the impact, Erica was certain she and Hunter were sliding towards certain death. As the truck drifted from the road, Hunter had just three seconds to react as they sped head on towards a concrete pillar. His split second reaction would either save their lives or seal their fate. Luckily, Hunter did exactly what he needed to do to make sure my life didn't end, Erica recalled. But, she knows he didn't act alone. God helped Hunter to respond exactly the way he did behind the wheel, guiding the truck exactly where he should have to be able to avoid smashing head on into the pillar, Erica wrote in a Facebook post. That doesn't just happen. God doesn't throw protection around like that for no reason. He does it because he's not finished with us. That's not all God did that day, either. Erica couldn't believe what she witnessed next. Trapped with no one around to see that they desperately needed help, Erica panicked and began to scream. Her eyes anxiously searched her surroundings, first looking towards the driver's seat. Hunter, whose head was through the windshield, wasn't moving and wouldn't respond. Hunter was bloodied and motionless, and Erica felt helpless, but that all changed the instant she looked out the truck's window. There was a man, bright with a big white beard. No other cars in sight, just this man, Erica recalled, and she knew exactly who he was. He was my guardian angel. He saw me and immediately told me that an ambulance was coming. Although Erica isn't sure if she was in a dream state or seeing a glimpse of heaven, she said, I knew in that moment was that Hunter was safe with me. But, the sight of the smiling man gave her something more than just affirmation that Hunter would be okay. As she kept her eyes on him, Erica was protected from further trauma. This man, looking at him for a short moment, helped me not witness Hunter being peeled out of the truck. I believe if I saw that I would have had a heart attack, Erica explained. Instead, this beaming, bright vision kept her attention diverted. Then, the stranger simply walked away, and when Erica blinked, a flashlight was suddenly shining in her face. The paramedics had arrived, and Erica and Hunter were about to experience yet another miracle. Here is the miracle part, no broken bones, concussions that lasted not even 24 hours, no internal damage, and just a few stitches in my knee and Hunter's face, Erica wrote. Only that after an accident the paramedics wonder how we didn't die instantly in a truck that looks like it's been through a tree grinder. Both Hunter and Erica were released from the hospital not even 48 hours after entering. And, again, they would receive yet another miracle. When they returned to the scene of the crash, they found Hunter's Bible open, with a page marked with scripture telling us to not be afraid, Jesus is with us, Erica said.

The only thing left behind at the crash scene is Hunter's Bible open, with a page marked with scripture telling us to not be afraid, Jesus is with us, Erica Stovall explained. I'm in awe of the presence of God in this entire situation. Every part of this experience we went through points directly to him, Erica wrote. I am amazed. Absolutely taken away by the presence of God, so blessed for him sending me an angel, so thankful for Hunter and his second chance at life, for his healing and health. Erica closed with a prayer for all of us who read her incredible story, which is proof of God's unwavering plan for each of us and that nothing in this physical world can derail what he has already determined. Tonight I'm praying for all of you, Erica Stovall wrote. I want everyone to know the love and the power of God, she continued. He has a purpose and it's so clear that nothing, not even a car accident like this one, will cause his plans for you to change, Erica explained. I'm praying that everyone who reads this can get a glimpse of God's faithfulness. He is good. And working. And the plans he has for you in your life aren't going anywhere, she declared. Good or bad, it's God's doing. It's his plans unfolding. It's his kingdom coming. Embrace the struggles and the joys of this life. Without a doubt, it's a miracle we're alive, but more than that, it's simply God's plan for us. We're so grateful for this wreck, Erica added, saying she'd endure it all again if it meant helping more people know God. We are blessed to be okay. And so in love with the amazing God we serve.
