Yes these deals are shady. Tonight I went and met this one man whom I had been texting about this one book I need for my Film class. So we decided on Starbucks at 7pm. I texted him saying, "I'm sitting outside." and the response was like I was in a mobster movie:
"I n white Cadillac"
No joke that is what it said and the car legit appears out of nowhere and the windows are tinted and I'm not kidding either it seemed that this mysterious fog came out of nowhere. Inside my head I'm praying to God because I was like "What HAVE I DONE?"
The car pulls up to me and I walk forward. Strike One for stupid girl (moi) who could have just been kidnapped. The window rolls down and the guy doesn't even look at me. Just hands me the book and I hand him the cash. He doesn't even acknowledge me and then he rolls up his window and drives off.
ARE YOU KIDDING ME? WAS I PUNKED? Scariest and funniest thing ever. My mom was in a car near us and she was like, "That looked like a drug deal."
Later tonight I was packing my backpack with my running clothes and remembered I needed a lock for the locker room but lo and behold I don't remember the combination and no I did not write it down somewhere hidden either. I was getting really frustrated and about to get dressed to go out because I would have no time in the morning so I just sat down and prayed I pleaded with God to please use my hands to open the lock.
Nothing.
Can you say patience? I felt like I was going to cry. Who knows why, I just felt like it. That's when I went downstairs and told my mother I would have to go out and her response was, "Well, did you pray about it?"
"Yes mother." I rolled my eyes.
"Let's all pray you guys!" my younger sister said.
That's when it happened. My sister said this child prayer with full confidence and I felt confident and I felt a presence move my hand and I heard that open click. The MasterLock opened. God had provided.
So today I learned about patience and having a little more faith. Now I'm praying that God calms my nerves about practice tomorrow. I get a little scared when I'm by myself in a new surrounding but I have to keep reminding myself that God is near me and around me at all times. What I do tomorrow will not have a lasting effect that will ruin my relationship with God. So I'm going in strides. I'm going to keep pushing and use these legs that God blessed me with and maybe someday work towards a marathon.
Prayers are appreciated from anyone who reads this.
Also I would love to hear about a God moment where He provided even in the littlest ways that was just mind blowing.
Have a blessed week~
In His Loving Name,
Taylor
