finding humor in the wreckage

     This year has been.. the worst of "luck" with vehicles. Throughout this whole year we have had vehicle problems. We have gone through 3 vehicles of our own, hit a deer with a friend's and totaled it, got an abnormally large rock chip in Jr's dads truck (luckily he was already getting the window replaced)  and yesterday we got hit in Jr's dad's car which was our last resort. It is safe to say that any problems we have with vehicles don't even surprise us anymore. We don't own a vehicle of our own that works and we can't afford to buy a new vehicle because we are going to ywam. I don't know if this is humorous or irritating. I'm choosing humorous. :)
     I feel like every vehicle we have had has been 'stripped' away from us and I just feel like God really wants us to trust him! I don't know if he was trying to teach us this lesson earlier in the year and now we have no other 'options' but to turn to God and stop trying to do things on our own. Whatever it is, I know that He is our provider.

Some verses that I feel as though God is speaking to us through:

1 Corinthians 2:5

So that your faith might not rest on men's wisdom, but on God's power.

AND

1 Corinthians 2:9

No eye has seen,
no ear has heard,
no mind has conceived
what God has prepared for those who love him.

I don't know what God's doing with us in this situation but if you see us walking in the streets feel free to pick us up! haha just kidding.
