An inconvenient adventure


My son and I were on our way to a hunting expedition.   We were stopped at a small town gas station in Illinois, in the middle of the night.  The trailor had blown a fuse and we had lost our tail lights.  As he went through the fuses looking for the bad apple he talked out loud. ‘It’s not this one,’ he said as he peered over a flashlight. As we neared the end of the fuses in the fuse box he spoke again, ‘God, I could use some help finding this fuse,’ he said.   Almost immediately a man and his son walked out of the shadows. After engaging in small talk the man said, ‘Have you thought of looking under the hood? There is often a fuse box there as well.’  Up went the hood and a new fuse box with the offending fuse was immediately discovered, and replaced.   As we went on our way down the road, toward a successful :)hunt, I found myself in wonder at how God had responded to a simple prayer and met the need of the moment. This is indeed a God-drenched world.  He is everywhere up to good. Haven't you seen it too?
