To those who prayed and God who answered!

Thanks to all who were praying for our van situation. After alot of phone calls and much prayer we got the van in to be fixed. After not being drivable in the driveway it actually ran to the garage where it was to be fixed! (Answer to prayer #1 - no towing charge.) The guy who fixed it had given us an "estimate" over the phone. Tim went to our community missions board at church to see if they could help. They wanted a written estimate as they only write checks to the vendors and never to a credit card. So to make a long story short I was without my own vehicle and had to rely on Tim, Jeremy and co-workers to get the children and me where we needed to be. (Answer to prayer #2) The car was out for almost 2 weeks! (God's lesson to me to FULLY rely on Him!) When we got it back, the garage still had not given us a written estimate for the church. We explained to the owner that our church was helping pay for the bill and needed something in writing. No problem, here's the bill. "Can I still get my car back while we wait for the church's answer on how much they can help?" Still no problem. (Answer to prayer #3.) He let us take the car home on Friday. We did not get an answer from the church until Monday. They gave us $1,000 to help with the bill. (Answer to prayer #4) God is so good, all the time. Thanks again for your prayers.
