Beggars Among Us

I was rolling down the interstate on my way home when it happened.
As my truck pushed up a hill at 75 mph the engine suddenly quit. Shocked, I watched all of the meters wind down to nearly zero in less than a second. The semi traffic behind me was catching up fast, and I had to cross the next lane and get onto the shoulder. This safely done, I realized that my coasting brought me down one hill and half way up the side of another. The truck slowed, stopped, and started rolling backwards. The brakes weren't working!! My last idea was the E-brake. I thought, Lord, please let this brake work, because if you don't I'm a goner.
God answers prayers. It worked.
