Praise Report

I posted a prayer request a few weeks ago (Sept 11) to be exact. The first item on the list was:
  • Reliable transportation: You see the state of our vehicles. The van has front brakes that squeal, back brakes that leak, a muffler that is falling off, a side door that wont open, a rack-n-pinion that leaks, battery problems, a transmission that is slipping and leaks. Each day I am fortunate that it still starts. Either send us someone that can make the repairs, and give us the ability to pay for them, or provide us with a new vehicle.

Well God has done some remarkable things. On the day that my wife was to come for one of our family sessions (don't remember if it was the one where they finally sent me home or not) she was pulling into my mothers drive way when suddenly the brakes blew. She had to swerve and use a burn/brush pile to get the van stopped. It was only a matter of time. They have loaned us the use of there vehicle indefinitely, at least until the insurance comes due. They have already bought another car and when the insurance comes due on this car they will sell it to us if we still want it. It is not as big as the van but has more seat belts. It is a mini station wagon and in much better shape overall then the van ever was.
