    Default Had to Share This

    For the past month our son has been out of work and really having a tough time. The wife and I have been praying for him constantly. Well, today he started his new job at a Ford dealership up the road a little ways and, on his first day of work, ACTUALLY SOLD TWO VEHICLES!! Needless to say, his excitement is sky high! Plus, the wife and I are soooooooooooooo very thankful for God's favor and blessings all over him!

    In a nut shell, when God answers our prayers, He doesn't go half way! All this waiting time, praying, trying not to worry, leave it all in God's hands, and He turns out and causes something like this. Amazing, simply amazing.

    Yep, God is an awesome God!!

    Thats just great, Mike.
    Psalm 73:28

    28 But as for me, it is good to be near God.
    I have made the Sovereign Lord my refuge;
    I will tell of all your deeds.

    All praise to the King...He alone is worthy !!
    Consider the words of Omar M. Ahmad, founder of CAIR: "Islam isn't in America to be equal to any other faith, but to become dominant." ... "The Koran, the Muslim book of scripture, should be the highest authority in America , and Islam the only accepted religion on Earth."

    18 And do not be drunk with wine, in which is dissipation; but be filled with the Spirit,


    I Come To The Garden Alone Hymn

    And He walks with me, and He talks with me,
    And He tells me I am His own;
    And the joy we share as we tarry there,
    None other has ever known.

    Just a quick update:

    BTW, thanks all for your comments and prayers for our son.

    Anyway, what he's doing at this Dealership is absolutely fantastic! He's taken the drive to move himself ahead, study all he can about all the cars, and is actually teaching the older salespersons about the electronic items on these new cars. Spoke with our son's boss the other day when I went by just to see him. His boss, the General Manager, tells me, I hope you don't mind but, this boy ain't goin' NO WHERE! They truely love him. And LOVE the work he's doing, ON HIS OWN! Needless to say, I'm quite proud of my boy. He really loves it there, enjoys being with people, and loves doing what he's doing. This is soooooooooooooo much an answer to prayer.

    He's not doing any selling right now. Gen. Manager just wanted him to take some time to do a little more training. But, it's all coming together far greater than his Mom and I ever expected.
