The truck we’re driving is a 1991. Pretty old.

My husband tells me it’s fine to drive out of town. I don’t believe him though!

I haven’t left our town since March. I’m not exaggerating. I don’t trust this old truck and I guess if I have to break down I’d rather be in town where there are several people I can call to pick us up.

We have been praying for a van, or a reliable vehicle.

A few weeks ago, my father in law decided to sell his very nice car. I didn’t have any extra money.

My niece bought it. At first I felt like “Oh man! I wanted that car.”

Then I said “Thank you Lord that J got a nice blessing. I’ll trust you to provide a vehicle when this truck is going to die.”

Then J decided she didn’t want it and gave it back to grandpa. I still didn’t have any extra money.

Today my father in law said “Hey do you still want that car?” He offered it to me for $1,000 less than he just sold it to J for and said I can pay him whenever.

He’s putting new tires on it too!

So in a couple days we will have a new vehicle. I think I’ll celebrate by going out of town!
