Last week I was driving to Tulsa and my car stopped accelerating, the RPMs kept going up but no speed, so I coast to the side of the road, and realize that my clutch was gone. completely caput. Upon taking my car into the ford dealership in my town, I thought that my warranty was going to pay all but fifty dollars, but I was soon told that my warranty would not pay for the clutch because its a “worn” part like the brakes, therefore I was told my total was going to be 1500.00. I was shocked. I thought to myself “what else can go wrong this week” Since Christmas I have had trials and tribulations that I have had to deal with in one way or another and have been thinking what next.
Today I was at work and I was looking up bible verses on bible.com and I happened upon some about trusting God.
Psalm 9:10
Those who know your name will
trust in you, for you,
LORD, have never forsaken those who seek you. and most of all
Proverbs 3:5
Trust in the
LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding
And I realized God is there for me in everything I do. You see I remembered, a couple of weeks ago I had a dream that God told me to sell my car and get rid of everything to do this trip, my friend kel, asked me if he where totally asking you this would you do it? I thought about it for a minute and said yes but not until the weather is better bc I would have to ride a bike to work and its too cold to do that. Then I realized thats what Im having to do, I dont have the money to fix my car so its sitting dead at my parents house, and Im having to rely on others to get me from point a to point b and I hate it. But what I realized the most and what bothers me the most is, God was asking to let go of my earthly possessions and I would not listen I need to give up what I love the most, because God should come first. So my new years resolution this year is to give up all my transgressions to the Lord, give everything fully to Him and to trust in Him with all my heart and lean not on my own understanding.
