In our last episode, I was rushing the car back to the Honda shop hoping that someone was there even though they were closing when I drove off their lot 30 minutes earlier.
I prayed a desperation prayer, “God, please have someone at the shop.” Like God is going to have someone drive back to the shop, reopen the place that they just closed and wait for me to bring my car back to them!
I prayed it so quietly that my wife, who was sitting in the passenger seat, didn’t hear me.
I was also praying that the car wouldn’t overheat. That was a more “answerable” prayer so I prayed that one out loud.
When I made the last left turn before turning into the parking lot, I was so thankful that the car did not display any of the usual symptoms from overheating.
I pulled into the parking and guess what I saw…
the general manager was there with the last garage door open!!!
I told him of the problem. I asked if could give me a good used radiator since I didn’t want to sink a small fortune into this car? He said that he would look to see if he had one. If he had one, he would call us to come pick up the car tonight! If not, then tomorrow morning!
My wife’s trip to Tennessee to spend Easter with our second daughter might still be on!
