I listen to these scary stories on youtube. I know, I know. Probably not great for my mental or spiritual health. They are addictive. It’s probably something to have a one-on-one with God about.

There are several youtubers who do this... they have regular people submit their creepy stories and they read them on a YouTube post in a creepy voice. The stories have a wide range of topics, but many seem to be about home invasions, near-kidnappings, encounters with a would-be killer, or stalker stories. They actually have taught me to be more alert and aware of my surroundings now that I have a child.

Something that occurred to me about them the other day .... many of them are about near-death experiences, or what the author thinks could have been a near-death experience... yet they are still alive. Still here to submit their scary story for a YouTube channel. Often, they come so close to getting in real trouble but some seeming quirk will save them.
A police officer will happen to drive by just then.
The hitchhiker will have an evil plot, but some little thing about the person will make him change his mind... like favorite music they have in common.
The kids will decide to ignore the bump on the roof and stay in bed because “it might be Santa” (it was a burglar who would have hurt them if they had seen him and screamed)

Stuff like that.... I wonder if it was God, who, despite most of these people saying they don’t believe in anything, wanted to keep them safe. He had a plan, and it wasn’t their time yet....
what do you think?
