Fireproof, a broken car, a BIG God!

We went to Fireproof almost a week ago and I am still talking about it. I am convinced that every couple should see this movie. I have not heard of anyone being disappointed. I could rave and rave about it, but I am sure most of you have either seen it or read plenty of blog reviews... if you have not seen the movie PLEASE go and see it!

Last weekend my car needed to be repaired quite a bit. For a seminarian and a nanny/organizer/mother's helper a car repair can be cause for anxiety when the bill comes. Brandon and I truly trusted God in this situation and knew that several things needed to be done to the car to make it safe, esp with winter around the corner. Over $1,000.00 later our car was running and stopping much better!
Fast Forward one week...
Brandon announced at dinner tonight that he "got a raise." In most families this would make sense, but around here Brandon has a work study job which he didn't go to today and an internship which technically we pay for so... I was very confused. Well, our GREAT PROVIDER came through in a big way. The church decided to pay Brandon for this semester's internship! Wow, we stepped out in faith and got the car fixed, and God smiled knowing how it was going to be paid for. Thank you Lord for knowing our needs better than we know them. Help us to trust you in the future and remember the faithfulness of the past! Amen
