Last Wednesday the Lord ended our car adventure by having us purchase a 1996 Honda Accord EX from a guy in St. Louis. My wife's blog has pictures of this car. Before we bought it, I really didn't feel differently than some other cars in the past that have looked really good too. One difference that I did notice though was that the Lord shut down these other opportunities before we had too much invested in them. But with this car, I got off work early and drove to St Louis in the middle of the week. Perhaps the Lord wouldn't have allowed us to waste our time and money if it wasn't from Him.
I did learn some things in the past 15 months though. I feel that sometimes it is very difficult to sense the Lord's will in your spirit and as such the righteous thing to do is to investigate all possibilities knowing that the Lord can use any of them and supernaturally turn one into a good thing. Paul and Barnabas tried to go to Asia to preach the gospel mutliple times but were turned away. Later on though, the gospel did go to Asia.
I also wanted to praise the Lord and publically give His name honor for His provision for us. The car is a very nice car and we are very greatful to Him.
