Work in progress

Sometimes my memory is not very good, so I like to write down things God has done for me. Last week I was cleaning out my email and ran across this message from a couple of years ago.

A warning light came on yesterday on my dashboard. I took it in to have it checked out. I just got a call that what should have been $800 was free because of an extended warranty on the problem part. I was lamenting this morning before I took it in, "Lord, I've been trying to be good and save money and now I've got to have my car repaired..." Like a co-worker asked me when I told her about it, When will we learn? Okay, maybe you've learned, so let me speak for myself. When will I learn?

Which of you by worrying can add one cubit to his stature?

(Matthew 6:27 NKJV)

Trust in the LORD with all your heart,
And lean not on your own understanding;
In all your ways acknowledge Him,
And He shall direct your paths.
(Proverbs 3:5, 6 NKJV)
