Yesterday, on our way home from delivering a meal to a mom with a new baby, our car started smoking and overheating. We made it home after putting water in the radiator - 2 different times. We think it's a broken hose. Hopefully that's all it is since we just got our car out of the shop less than a week ago, spending many dollars on it for unrelated problems.
Will you serve and praise God even when trials hit you?
Remember that God is still faithful. Don't confuse your circumstances with God's faithfulness or His ability to come through for you!
Hebrews 4:12-16 (NLT) says this: "For the word of God is full of living power. It is sharper than the sharpest knife, cutting deep into our innermost thoughts and desires. It exposes us for what we really are. Nothing in all creation can hide from Him. Everything is naked and exposed before His eyes. This is the God to whom we must explain all that we have done. That is why we have a great High Priest who has gone to heaven, Jesus the Son of God. Let us cling to Him and never stop trusting Him. This High Priest of ours understands our weaknesses, for He faced all of the same temptations we do, yet He did not sin. So let us come boldly to the throne of our gracious God. There we will receive His mercy, and we will find grace to help us when we need it."
YES, I will still PRAISE THE LORD!!!

Good for you Dani. We have had a similar bout of bad "luck" with finances and cars, but God is good and life could be a LOT worse.
