Today, God did something for me. That was unbelievable.

I have been praying for a vehicle, asking God for help. And today he delivered into my hands, literally a vehicle which make has always been my dream car.

A 2019 Subaru Outback

And it’s not just the car itself, but it’s the little details that only God knew that I wanted.:

Sun roof with no leaks
All wheel drive
Great gas mileage

And my unspoken wants:
Back up cam
Black rims
Something I can get in and out of with out further injuring my knee.

I mean Those unspoken things are on everybody’s vehicles these days it seems, but I never thought that I would have the ability to get anything like this, this new.

And here’s the kicker the add-ons that he threw in, just because he’s God and just because he God he can do anything he wants

The car is only six years old
It has a stellar history of upkeep.
It is reliable
It comes with brand new tires.
I’ve never bought a vehicle before that I didn’t have to replace the tires on immediately. Ever.
That part just made me giggle a little bit.

Life has been a real struggle and I finally am trying to learn how to just give Jesus my everything. Take a look at the pictures and see what he provided today. I mean, I’m gonna have to work really hard to pay for it, but the way it all happened in under just a few hours, it could’ve only been Jesus. It has everything I’ve ever wanted in so much more.

I sat in the car today when the dealership people dropped it off and then left, and honestly had the most intense cry that I think I’ve ever had over an object.

Jesus knows my deepest wants and he delivered today.
None of this was my doing. It was all Jesus.

Twice in the last month, people have offered to give me, 100% free of charge better cars than the 2000 GMC Sonoma that I have and I just turned it down because I felt like it was the right thing to do.

The truck that I own drops from 70 miles an hour to 50 miles an hour on the slightest of incline on the freeway. Just lose his power. Or gumption or whatever.
The door doesn’t shut properly on the driver side because before I bought it, it was T-boned and considered totaled, but it still started and it ran so I bought it from my friend because I needed a vehicle.

I turned down a $10,000 check for a good used vehicle from a family member because the Lord put on my heart not to take the money.

I wanted it, but I wanted to obey more.

A man and his wife from church wanted to give me a beautiful van, it runs really nice and has been really good for their family, and I felt like the Lord told me not to take it.
I wanted it also, but again I wanted to obey more.

If you’re struggling with obedience, trust me, I understand.

It’s the hardest thing to do to walk away from something that you want and even need.

I was not able to work 40 hours a week because I didn’t have a vehicle that was reliable until today. And sometimes the work I do requires me to travel out of town, and because I wasn’t able to other people would need to take my hours.

It is hard to obey, sometimes it feels impossible. But do it no matter what you have to walk away from or decline, if the Lord is calling you to do something he’s speaking to you trying to tell you how much he loves you and wants to give you better.

I didn’t deserve this car today, because I have struggled with obedience in a lot of other ways, but he’s faithful to us. Even when we are not always faithful to him

No matter what it is be obedient

I never thought that I could have a car this nice. If you knew my life, you’d understand, but you don’t you’re gonna have to take my word on his promise.

He wants better for us than we want for ourselves. Guaranteed.

This is my pastor. His favorite question in the Bible is ‘why?’

It didn’t occur to me until today that little children love to ask why.

It makes total sense because he has an insatiable thirst for the word of God.

He is not always surrounded by glittery lights. This was a Christmas program. I used a blurred image of him because he does not want the limelight. He gives all the glory to God.
