Have you ever been forced to slow down? It's often very frustrating in the moment. But it can be exactly what you need. And it happened to Sara last week.

Returning from a trip to the border, Sara was diverted from her normal route because the road was blocked by an accident. But that detour made her bypass a small town and her last chance to fill the tank. She soon ran out of gas. Pretty much in the middle of nowhere.

Today, Sara shares how this all unfolded, how her husband creatively responded to her dilemma, and how a good-hearted Texan came to her aid and became a fast friend. And Sara tells us the important lessons she learned from the experience.
