Today began like it was straight from the very pit of Hell. It actually probably was! My son woke up with a not feeling good again today after he was fine all day yesterday. I get my kids going, getting dressed, eating breakfast, etc. I told my son he needed to "suck it up and pray it off" and "who exactly was he going to let control his body?" Now that probably sounds pretty harsh to a lot of people, but what if we all took the authority God has given us through His Son Jesus and actually used it?!?! I used it as a teaching opportunity with him and it worked! He was fine, no more runny nose!
I walked outside to get in the car and take the kids to school and I look at my car and realize that I had a flat tire. I found two GIANT nails in my tire. I must have picked them up on the way home from work last night. My heart sunk. Luckily for me I was able to borrow my dad's car and get the kids to school and get to work. I get in my dad's car and whatever I did to it, I made the alarm go off sporadically all the way from my house to the kids school and then to work. I was about to LOSE my ever loving mind! I will admit that I did yell at the car and bang the steering wheel a couple of times. I finally made it to work, PRAISE GOD and the alarm shut off!
After all that drama getting to work, I got the opportunity to pray with two people before 10 am!
When I got inside one of the other lady's who works in my building was having symptoms of a heart attack and was getting ready to leave for the emergency room. I asked her if I could pray for her. She agreed and her boss prayed with us. It was so awesome to see God give her such peace! We also prayed for favor and the trip to the ER to be a quick one. It was. She was back at work that afternoon. Praise God she was OK! It turned out to be carbon monoxide poisoning which the doctors were able to remedy very quickly!
Then my client arrived. After talking with her for a few minutes she told me that there were some issues with her pregnancy. I shared with her about how my daughter was diagnosed as having spina bifida when I was 16 weeks pregnant and how through the power of prayer Meg was born perfectly whole. I then got the opportunity to pray with her for her little boy. I know it gave her great encouragement to know that God had healed my daughter and my husband and I were not even Christians at the time, it was through the prayers of my husbands family that Meg was healed.
I got my dad's car back home safely and a friend who owns a towing company came and put my spare tire on and I was able to make it to class only 20 minutes late. I took my car in to have the tire replaced and they REPLACED my tire for only $2.50 because it was under warranty! Talk about FAVOR!
God totally took all of the strife and strain that I went through this morning and brought a lot of blessing out of it!
