I must tell this story to give God all the glory....... We decided to move all our stuff in a caravan down to Florida. So we rented two large Penske trucks to get the job done. The night we pick up the Penske truck, it breaks down. But they sent someone out immediately to fix it and they worked on it. The next day the next truck wasn't ready until midday which put us a little behind but nothing major. Learning to be flexible I would say and trust. The trip down was a pretty normal trip and very thankful for traveling mercies. I cannot remember all the states, but each place we stopped someone would ask us for help... The first man approached Joel and Bethany for food or money for lunch in North Carolina.... we took him to lunch with us and shared a meal with him....... The second was an elderly lady in South Carolina who approached Danny for money for gas as we were at a Rest Area....Danny gave her money also The third was a Hindu lady who approached me, she was kind, humble and asked me to fill up her gas can at the gas pump as she was traveling to see her sister and out of money and I put gas in the kind woman's conatainer..... We all were in awe.... is this a test? is the world really this desperate? And they say we are coming out of a recession. I have never seen as much desperation as this. Maybe it was meant for us to see only and realize the need out there. God knows what he is doing and all things happen for a reason. As we were all unloading trucks in the rain for the next two days, we know God is in control, he is on the throne and he is equipping us and has equipped us for his service !! Thank you God for the opportunity to serve. Let brotherly love continue. Be not forgetful to entertain strangers: for thereby some have entertained angels unawares. Hebrews 13:1-2 |
