Middle of the week post.
This is taken from my Facebook page because I don’t really have anything else to add except crying:
“I wanted to make a video, but am a better writer of my thoughts than speaker … plus there will be crying…
I haven’t had a car since September 2016. I’ve always said God took my car away to teach me lessons. People always asked when I would get a car or I could do this … or I could do that.
Instead, I waited. I knew it was between God and me and when an opportunity for a car showed up I would have a car. If God wanted me to have a car He would give me a car. In the meantime I saved my money as if I didn’t have a job.
You learn a lot of things when you wait on God AND you do not have a car. If you want to be humbled I recommend not having your own vehicle, but that’s my opinion.
Anyway, flash forward to now…
Out of nowhere someone offered to help buy me a car. At first I said no, but they stated three people had the idea independently and came together.
“Out of the mouth of three witnesses my word will be established.”
The same week this news happened my neighbor asked if I was interested in buying their old car. A few days later (after the shock of someone offering to help pay for one) my neighbor offered to give me the car. And this car is a Honda Accord… like mine.
To quote one of my favorite gospel songs think Regina Belle said it best :
“I said that he made, a way …
Then he put food, on my table…
Then he put shoes, on my feet
So he could guide my every foot step …
Jesus saved, my soul, and then he brought me out of darkness
God is good…
I said that he healed my every sickness
With no money in my pocket
He still made a way out of no way, and then he brought me out of darkness
God is good…”

I have shown up to peoples houses … called people … a coworker and I did the happy hug dance. “Did you see my beautiful black car outside?!”
Things I have learned in the waiting:
Matthew 10: When only God can restore your relationship with your dad.
Resist the devil and he will flee…
The Fruit of a childhood prayer: When you’re called to lead by example by just being you…
I will (not) show you my faith by my works…
Walking into new seasons like…- A journal entry
5 Year Anniversary – I have learned in whatever state I am in to be content.
Daniel 3: Do you believe there is another in the fire?
