I stepped on the gas and shifted into drive, then reverse, then back into drive again. Gunned the engine. It was no use. My truck was hopelessly stuck.<\/p>\n

It had been snowing<\/a> when I left for work but nothing like this. I\u2019d never seen snow accumulate so fast, and we get some pretty serious snowstorms in Oklahoma. Visibility had dropped to nearly zero. That\u2019s when the truck had fishtailed off the road.<\/p>\n

I need to get home to call Stephanie,<\/i> I suddenly thought. My 11-year old had spent the night at a friend\u2019s house. She was supposed to get a ride home soon with the friend\u2019s father. I\u2019d have to warn them and let her know she\u2019d need to stay another night. No way should anyone be out in this weather.<\/p>\n

Luckily, I hadn\u2019t driven too far yet. It would take me only about 15 minutes to walk back to the house. I\u2019d call Stephanie\u2014this was 1983, before cell phones\u2014then let work know I wouldn\u2019t be able to make it in. My husband, John, a ranch hand, had the day off . We\u2019d come back later to dig out the truck. Hopefully he\u2019d already warned our daughter, but I couldn\u2019t be sure. This storm was really spooking me.<\/p>\n

I turned off the truck and stepped out onto the road. The wind rocked me back, and the driving snow stung my face. I held my purse out in front of me like a shield and started walking in the direction of the house.<\/p>\n

By now, it was a complete whiteout<\/a>. Snow filled my boots. My toes went numb, and I began shivering violently. I\u2019d dressed for the cold, not a blizzard.<\/p>\n

My mind flashed back to the old Westerns my dad loved to watch. I remembered one that had a blizzard. The ranch hand tied one end of a rope to a post on the porch, then held on to the other end while he went to tend the livestock in the barn. That way, he could find his way back. Even in that short distance, it was easy to get lost in a storm. A storm like this one.<\/p>\n

I should turn back while I can still spot the truck,<\/i> I thought. I\u2019ll wait out the storm there.<\/i> I turned around. But I couldn\u2019t see anything. Not the truck. Not the road, not even my tracks. Everything was a disorienting blur of white. I had no choice but to keep trekking toward home. Yet it seemed as if I\u2019d been walking forever. Had I missed the house?<\/p>\n

I trudged on, my legs growing heavier. I couldn\u2019t even feel my feet. The wind grew deafening. All of a sudden, I bumped into a telephone pole. I\u2019d been so certain I was walking straight down the middle of the road, but obviously I was wrong. I\u2019d been drifting.<\/p>\n

Weak and exhausted, I collapsed against the pole. This county road, which cut through 2,000 acres of flat, featureless ranch land, was hopelessly empty. All at once it hit me: I was probably going to die out here. Tears welled up and froze before they could make it down my cheeks. I fell to my knees.<\/p>\n

Goodbye, John,<\/i> I thought. I love you. You were a good husband.<\/i> I said goodbye to each of our five children, told them I loved them. Told them I was sorry I wouldn\u2019t have the chance to see them grow up.<\/p>\n

The wind howled in my ears. \u201cOkay, God!\u201d I shouted. \u201cI\u2019m ready!\u201d<\/p>\n

A profound sense of peace warmed me. My fears were carried off . I felt open to God, ready to feel his presence. I listened for his voice.<\/p>\n

Ting!<\/i><\/p>\n

What was that?<\/p>\n

Ting!<\/i> It was a high-pitched metallic sound. Ting! Was I delirious? How could I hear anything over this roaring storm? Ting!<\/i> There it was again! I struggled to my feet. Stumbling, I headed in the direction of the sound. Ting! Ting!<\/i> I was way off the road now, in a field. I kept walking, trusting, the sound growing improbably louder when I shouldn\u2019t have been able to hear anything.<\/p>\n

Soon I was at the source of the strange noise\u2014a tin rectangle I recognized as a protective covering for an irrigation pump. It was clanging against a pipe. Then something caught my eye. The faintest glow in the distance. Was it real? Could I trust my senses? I felt like it was calling to me. Not daring to take my eyes off the glow, even for a second, I walked toward it. With each step, I felt a surge of hope<\/a>. I was going the right way. I could feel it.<\/p>\n

I followed it until I found myself standing in front of my barn, next to my house, staring up at the lone streetlight on our stretch of road. I was home.<\/p>\n

Later, after I\u2019d changed out of my sodden clothes and John had wrapped me up in warm blankets, I learned just how bad it was. John had in fact called Stephanie shortly after I left, when he saw the weather taking a turn for the worse. The news was now reporting that the storm had forced closings of major airports all the way to Michigan. The wind chill was below zero, and I\u2019d been out in it for two hours.<\/p>\n

My coworker Lori had called John to let him know I hadn\u2019t picked her up on the way to work. As I stumbled inside the house, John had been bundling up to go look for me. Thank God we both didn\u2019t end up lost in the storm\u2014or worse.<\/p>\n

Many years later, I still think about that blizzard and that moment of utter helplessness when I turned myself over completely to the will of God. He met me in the depths of my weakness and lifted me from my knees to hear a sound I should not have been able to hear, one that led me to safety<\/a>, to home.<\/p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
