God's Humour

One thing that has been incredible for me to experience in the last year is the peace that I have had about my relationship with Martin and the future, despite the many things I don't know, won't know and can't know now.  I know that God is good, I know that God has a plan (which my life is a part of), and it has been so clear to me that God has gone before me and taken care of all the details of this move.

The two biggest examples are the sale of my house, and, hot off the press, the sale of my car!

The plan was for me to sell my car on Nov. 13th, and then book a rental car for the week of the wedding.  But, I didn't want to book a rental car until I had sold my car.  Now, as we're coming down to the wire, I decided to just book the rental car anyways, and trust that mine would sell.  So Mom and I were talking on the phone about rental car details, and redeeming air miles to rent the car... you know, all the details you need to figure out before booking.

10 minutes into the phone call, the door bell rang, and it was a couple who wanted to look at my car.  I wasn't expecting anyone to show up tonight.  So the couple looked at the car, then took it for a test drive (they left me their cell phone, car and child as collateral... ummm... anyways...) then they gave me a deposit, and we're exchanging it on Saturday or Sunday.  Wow!  

So back to my conversation with Mom... "yep, let's book the car now."

Ha!  God's timing is perfect... and funny at times.
