A Word About Life and Things


           

 

Before We Ask

      There was a mother with two small children driving over a very high bridge. The driver of a semi-tractor trailer lost control of his vehicle and slammed into several cars. The vehicle carrying the mother and the two children were crushed and was hanging over the edge of the bridge. When the police arrived they thought that no one could have survived. Then they heard some noise coming from the car. They tried everything they could to get the car opened up but it was rocking back and forth and was dangerously close to falling over into the sea. A man came up wearing a Navy uniform. He said that he was the head of a Navy engineering team and had a one-of-a-kind forklift, that can extend out, it could tilt and rotate in any direction and lift 11,000 pounds. The officer said how quickly can you get it here. While they were talking, it was pulling up. There were only three of this type of forklift in the world. They were able to reach out and lift the car back onto the roadway. After they rescued the woman and the kids, the Navy engineer told the police officer how earlier that day they were delayed three hours. They were supposed to be at their location, but something caused them to be late and they were just coming by; when the accident happened.

      There are many times in our lives when things happen that we think are coincidences, like a car that just missed hitting us. With God, there are no Coincidences. He said before you call on Him, He will answer. There are many times that we do not have time to ask God for his help. We are in trouble and He came to our rescue before we ask Him for His help. There are many times that God came to help us and we did not know it. Our God knows in advance what we need and He is there to help us when we need it. Sometimes the answer is starting to happen months before we need it. God is always on time, He is never late. Before we ask He will help us.
