Praying For Rain

Now, hang in here with me. This is gonna be a long one, but I just know ya’ll don’t have anything better to do with your time than listen to the mindless ramblings of a crazy woman, so here we go… Well, it all started with me praying for rain…..

And how many times have we all been reminded when we pray, we should be “specific”? Well.. I wasn’t…I just prayed for rain, I didn’t say where or when and I didn’t EVEN mention my maters.  So what do you think happened? That’s right, I got some rain today. 

Now… I told ya’ll that to tell you this…

Somewhere between Niceville and Mossy Head, God decided to answer my prayer and it began to sprinkle. And you know how you have that couple of seconds of indecision where you pause and think … “Should I turn on the wipers yet or not?” Well, I was debating that in my mind and talking it over with myself… when all of a sudden…my windshield wipers…TURNED THEMSELVES ON!!!  Ain’t that something?  They just turned themselves on like they could sense the rain  AND that I couldn’t make up my mind.  You could have knocked me over with a feather  if I had been standin’ up!  And THEN…the bottom fell out of the sky and the rain poured down!

 Now some of you may have one of these smarty pants cars that will turn the  windshield wipers on all  by itself…but I have never seen such!  I was IMPRESSED. ( I would have been MORE impressed if they had reached out with some buckets and caught some of that rain for me to bring home for my maters AND if this car wants to REALLY impress me it will sense when I am tired and pull itself over, let the seat back  and tell me to take a nap.) But still…pretty impressive.   Since I know you will all want to read this story to your little ones tonight before bedtime, I’m gonna give you the moral of the story…and here it is…

Whether God  just  answered my prayer for rain and threw in the windshield wiper trick as a little something extra.. OR…. if He just gave a human being somewhere at some time,  the knowledge to make them do that mechanically…I experienced a MIRACLE  today!   So… to God be the Glory!
