The White Van And The Lord

This personal experience encouraged me and I thought that maybe it will be an encouragement for others as well.

This past week we had troubles with our car, it was discharging the battery overnight, in the end by the time the mechanic found the problem the battery was compromised and had to buy a new one. 

 On the way to the shop to purchase a new battery, I went by Penny car park ( our supermarket). I could notice this big white van that wasn't starting. The driver turned the key a few times but the engine didn't start. As I have recently gone through a similar experience of the car not starting in various places, I could immediately understand the desperation on that man's face especially as according to the number plate, he was from an up north county. 

 I prayed to the Lord, and I said: Lord please help this man to start his van and please help him get wherever he needs to go" I made only a few steps further when I could hear a successful turn of the key, the van started. You can imagine how happy I was for such a quick answered prayer and for the man and his lady being able to continue their journey. 

Thank you Lord. I regret not going back to tell that driver that the Lord helped him. 

Soon after that I felt so deep inside of me that the Lord had definitely heard my other prayers that I said for myself only a few minutes before this prayer was answered. 

But God has His time for everything.

Thank you Lord. Blessing to you in the Name of our Lord!
