God’s Evident Hand
The last couple weeks have been “exciting.” It started when we flew to Fargo, ND. This is the second time we have gone in the dead of winter. I check our sanity every time we say Yes but we love the people there, and we strive to go anywhere God has called us to minister. On our return flight, they cancelled the flight from Chicago to home so we had to catch a bus. We got home much later than anticipated, and the next morning, we drove to Florida. That trip went really well until we were coming back through Birmingham, AL. They had an ice storm, making the roads treacherous. People were slipping, sliding, and stalling all around us. It is only God’s hand that kept us from being hit. He enabled us to drive roads no one else could get through on, and we finally arrived home safe and sound.
If I didn’t believe in God, I would have had to during that time. He heard our prayer, and now I am praising Him wholeheartedly for His guidance and protection. I was not worried for our lives but I did not want to spend more time in Birmingham than I had to. Home has never felt so good.
God never promised my life would be easy. Difficulty is not a sign that He is not with me. In fact, it is the difficult times that make me even more grateful that He is with me.
I am aware that God always keeps us safe on the road. This week, I saw how He did it. I pray I never cease to praise Him for His hand of protection every day.
I’m so glad you made it home safely, Sony! Love you!!
Thank you, Diana. Home has never felt so good in the wintertime. 🙂 I love you too!
