I haven't blogged in a few days, but that does not mean God has not been moving in an awesome way! The past few days have been full of excitement. God has been answering so many prayers of mine all at once, and I feel as though His blessings are overtaking me. He is truly amazing.
A few things that been happening...first, we received the money to pay our car sales tax/registration after three long months. The first two months were not our fault, as there was a hangup with the paperwork for the sale of our car, but we still would have to pay the penalty fees. The last month, we simply didn't have $1200.00 laying around for that purpose. I decided last month to just let go of my worry over this issue. It has been plaguing me and causing me stress since the day we bought this car. What could have made matters worse is that we were rear-ended in an intersection on March 1st, and we didn't even have current license plates. I could just see another ticket, more fines, and a court date in my near future.
None of that happened.
I let go, and let God handle all my worries. Well....this is what He did.
1.) He brought me $7095.00 today to cover my car registration and taxes, and a whole lot more.
2.) He gave me grace with the policeman at the car accident and he didn't give me a ticket for being late on my car registration.
3.) I went to pay the taxes today and I wrote the lady a check. She said, OOPS, I messed up on the amount. You are gonna have to write me another check. She says, "the total is $99.00 cheaper than I told you."
4.) I wrote a check with the late fees deducted. AMEN.
But that's not all, God has been on the MOVE....
Let's see... I had to take my son to the emergency room because he was having trouble breathing two nights ago. I've been needing to set up his surgery date to have his tonsils removed to help with the sleep apnea he is facing (at 2 years old!) But anyway, we went to the ER and they gave him some medications and a breathing treatment. I had not slept that whole night (we went at 4 a.m.) before going as I worried about my baby. I had been praying over him for healing and God's protection. Finally, I decided to get him some help.
After getting the medications and gathering our things to leave, an old man walked by our room. He stopped and shuffled into our room and said, "What is your little boy's name?" I told him my son's name and he immediately reaches down and touches his forehead and says, "I bid to thee God's Word, you are HEALED in Jesus' name!" The second he started praying, I became aware of the presence of God in the room, but it wasn't just the chill bumps all over my body as usual, it was like a SHOCKWAVE. It hit me in the chest and the power was unbelievable. I felt knocked back and yet completely overcome with peace and joy. He only said those words, but I left that room praising God, full of JOY....and my baby was suddenly feeling much better!
My baby lifted his arms to have me carry him. As I did this, he loudly said, "AMEN!" I said, "Well, Amen! Amen!" Then we walked to the car, but as we did, my son -who barely started talking - starts shouting "JESUS, JESUS, JESUS, JESUS...." He was full of excitement and looking over my shoulder. We got to the car and I said, "Yes, Jesus."
My son looked over my left shoulder and said, "JESUS....RIGHT THERE."
He was making eye contact and smiling. And I suddenly had the feeling that a man was standing right behind my shoulder and I knew it was Jesus and my son was seeing him clearly.
We are so blessed to walk through this life with Jesus. He is always with us. He never leaves us or abandons us. He was with me when I thought I was alone in the ER. He is ALWAYS with us.
That is my testimony for today.
God bless you all. If you don't know Jesus as your personal Savior....you should. Life is never the same, and you are never alone again.
His Beloved,
Sarah
