Two stories I want to tell. Our lawn was very very tall since we didn’t have a lawnmower. My husband found a mower last week and came home to try to get through the jungle of grass. He mowed the front and one side then decided to go do the orchard. It died and he couldn’t get it going again. After a couple hours of working on it, he gave up for the night and came inside.
That night we said prayers together and it was my turn. I prayed and gave thanks for the affordable mower and for him to be able to figure out the problem so he could finish the lawn.
The next day he told me that the mower was fixed and that it was a direct answer to my prayer.
Tonight we had a similar thing happen. We had been at my in-laws all afternoon. We went to leave and at the stop sign my husband decided to go look at my brother’s pickup. We turned right instead of left (#1). We left my brother’s and went around the block instead of doing a uturn as usual. (#2). We stopped to say hi to a fellow my husband used to work with and then his wife a little down the road. (#3..hubby was going to go on by which is a long story but I hollered hi to each of them.)
She asked us if hubby knew anything about mowers. The mower quit working as her husband was mowing. They were going out of town and needed to mow the lawn before they left in the morning. He told her we had 20 minutes to try to figure it out. She told us that she had prayed some man would come along and help them fix the mower. She was not going to water the plants along the road tonight but decided to go do it (#4). It took all those decisions to answer her prayer.
Heavenly Father does care about us and even our lawns.
