Tested

I know everything happens for a reason. I don't believe in luck or happenstance. Whether good our bad things happen to serve a purpose. Sometimes I don't know the reason or even understand it. But there is a reason nonetheless. Recently my front right tire went flat as I was driving home from Lompoc, CA to Long Beach, CA. I had a flashback of a driver who suffered a blowout. I exit the freeway and pull into a gas station. I'm safe, AAA comes and gives me a tow home. The next day I get the tire replaced. Then yesterday as I'm driving to work praying to God to bless my journey, my right rear tire pops. I had to immediately swerve to my right to get off the freeway. Once again I call aaa but this time I have already used up my four free calls. So $60 later the spare is put on my car and I drive to the auto shop to get a new tire once again. Also it turns out on that same wheel, I had to replace two lugnuts and a stud. Needless to say I had to miss work. At this point my funds are under $20. I'm struggling to see how I'm going to make it through the week. But that's not all. I know God is keeping and blessing me anyway. I'm grateful to be alive and I give all my pause to the most high God. He is worthy. Yes, I do feel tested but it's okay because God will deliver. And thank you Rhee for being there for me. Even though you live the furthest away, you actually took time to answer my calls. I called co workers who lived near the area of where I was stranded and didn't get a single answer. I have been tested justly and I still look up for my help. This is what I've been going through for the past for days. God bless you all.

  1. See if that were me, I would have cursed left and right, flipped the bird at all the many cars who drove by me and didn't offer to help me and then called up the guy who worked on my car just 24hours ago who is supposed to, by law, verify all tires... Now, I know, because you told me, that you rolled over something, which in turn, caused your tired to pop but you don't mention that in here so I would have definitely done that lol. You my dear, are just too kind of a soul, I don't think I have ever seen You angry, well, angry enough to curse lol or even show frustration lol you stay so calm. God definitely has his wings around you Sunshine! <3
