Wheelchair Miracle

I just wanted to write about a miracle that Mike and I were able to witness this past week. One of Mike's customers was in a motorcycle accident and she was very beat up and in intensive care. Mike got a call from another customer telling him what had happened and the worst part is that her husband died while she was in the hospital and she wasn't aware of it yet. She was in need of a wheelchair which are really expensive and sometimes are not covered very well by insurance. They called asking Mike if he had any wheelchairs on hand to give to her. We didn't have one and it would take a couple of days to get a new one to our house. Mike got off the phone feeling really bad for this lady and the trials she would be going through. A few min. later a Fed Ex truck pulled into our drive way which isn't unusual but, Mike saw that they were bringing a wheel chair to our door. We were floored because Mike wasn't suppose to be getting a wheel chair as a sample this year. We opened the door and the wheel chair was the exact wheel chair that this lady needed. We both looked at each other and Mike said, "This chair just came from the Lord." He called the customer to let them know that a chair had just arrived and he would take it to her.

This experience left such an impression on me that the Lord is truly aware of us. This poor lady is sitting in a hospital and finding out that her husband just died. The Lord knew that even just a wheelchair would ease some stress in her life. The Lord is aware of us and knows what we need and will usually answer our prayers through someone else. We were grateful that Mike was able to be the means of helping the Lord in getting her a wheelchair. It was a small miracle but, It strengthened my testimony this week and I hope my kids will always remember that Heavenly Father answers prayers and is aware of you in times of need.
