A Story of God's Care

--DJ enjoying the snow this weekend--

 

God is so gracious in his care for us, isn't he?

He showed me again yesterday that he is always

there, right beside me, and so I wanted to share

the story with you.  Miss E and I were on our way

to her doctor appointment (I will have to share more

details on that another time) and it was in the city

about an hour away from us.  We had just gotten

into town, and I looked down and there was a light

on the dash that said, CHECK YOUR GAUGES.

So I looked them over and noticed that the

temperature gauge was way high.  So I quickly

let off the gas and it started to go down right

away, but when I pushed on the gas again

it shot right back up.  (Thank goodness for cell

phones) I quickly called Andy and asked what

to do.  He figured I probably needed more

coolant.  Now, I have no idea how to add more

coolant, and I didn't have any idea where

to get more coolant on the road I was on.

Andy's the mechanic so he takes care of all that.

After driving/coasting about a mile, and

wondering what to do, all of a sudden I saw

a car dealership up on the left with a garage

that said "Service Entrance", so I pulled in

there, explained that I needed more coolant,

and could they get me some real quick so

I wouldn't be late to my doctor appointment?

They were so kind and helpful and filled

it up and didn't even charge me anything.

I am so thankful that God was right there

with me, helping me find just the right place

to go.  He is good!!  And, I was only 2 minutes

late to the appointment.  This was such an

encouragement to me, because if God cares

about the little things like vehicle problems,

I know he cares about my big problems.

 

Cast your cares on the LORD

and he will sustain you;

he will never let the righteous fall.

Psalm 55:22

 

Cast all your anxiety on him

because he cares for you.

1 Peter 5:7
