IRL super power log

I am starting this log to document oddities I experience in reality, with the hopes of being able to master super powers. While they are in reality gifts of the Spirit, I prefer calling them super powers. Don't worry, when I accomplish these things there will be zero question as to who I attribute them to. Super powers just sounds cool, so that's the term I'm using.

John 14:12 (Jesus speaking)
"Very truly I tell you, whoever believes in me will do the works I have been doing, and they will do even greater things than these, because I am going to the Father."

1. Years ago I was nearly in a car accident on the freeway, doing about 75mph. The only way I could avoid it was near instantaneous and flawless calculation.  When the impact occurred just ahead of me, time slowed to a crawl. While time was slowed, my mind played out the exact physical interactions about to occur at what would be a normal speed, but at this slowed time it would have been in a matter of milliseconds (under .2 seconds all told).  I calmly looked over my shoulder, saw I had one car length to change lanes, threw on my blinker for good measure, and moved directly behind the collision. Both cars careened out of my path a split second before I reached them, and they went right through where I would have been.  Adrenaline might explain this to some degree, but it was perfect calm and calculation in a sudden life or death situation combined with the physical feeling of time dilation. Also, perfectly controlling adrenaline or the mind could easily be considered super powers, and we need to start somewhere.

2. I was not present for this one, but I cannot help but list it. I got the sudden urge to call a good friend who I had not spoken to in some time. I called and left a message, more emotional than I typically would, essentially saying I would fight to keep him as my friend. Little did I know that at this exact moment he had passed out behind the wheel (due to an asthmatic coughing fit). He drove off the road and missed two telephone poles so narrowly that they took off his side mirrors, and he drove into a fence so hard that his windshield shattered and a pole pierced his engine, also if he had been a few feet off, he would have driven into a river. When he awoke both he and his dog were completely unscratched. His car was so destroyed that when reaching back in for his wallet he cut himself, and the path to stop safely was so complex he could not have done it while awake. And between losing consciousness and calling the police upon exiting his car, he had a voicemail from me, essentially declaring "Objection!" to losing him as a friend. I have no idea how I could have known about or influenced this, but the sheer statistical analysis of the whole thing, and the possibility of bending reality to my will, definitely puts it on the list.

3. Much more minor, but I have been practicing, is dulling the focus of my eyes. It helps me rest them without closing them, and minimizes peripheral distraction. I have noticed one spot at about 10 o'clock, about 1/3 from the center, in my left eye, will now blur at times, always accompanied by important information, like my subconscious having learned how to communicate more effectively with my conscious mind. Additionally though, today I noticed that when I blur my vision in such a way, a depth of red and green vibrating strings could be seen between me and whatever I was looking at. The most interesting thing about this phenomenon was the depth itself. I could see how just seeing colored lines might be indicative of vision problems, but these were persistent between attempts, and some were clearly 3 inches away, others 9 inches, others 2 feet, etc. The intricacy of the web was very clearly visible. I would like to continue practicing these vision tricks, to see if they develop into something more tangibly valuable as a super power.
