Hello friends, we are so excited to share with you our new blog, here you will find many things like information about the ministry, what has happened with us in the last year, what is happening now and the plans to come. We want to keep you informed of the amazon project so you know how you can pray for us.
Some of you may not know that we are getting married in December. We are looking forward to seeing family and friends we have not seen in a long time. We hope to see you there.
In our next post we will bring more information about how we met, our life in college, and what more we plan for our future.
For now we want to share one story that just happened to us, it shows God's protection and provision over our lives.
Traveling home to Virginia from West Virginia for the weekend about 3.5 hours more to go, we were starting to come over some of WV's mountains and it was growing darker and the temperature was in the 30's, we were driving around a turn and got a flat tire. By God's grace we rolled into a church driveway.
As you can see the car was loaded as well as the car trunk. So we had a fun time unloading all our belongings to find the spare tire underneath.
Jonatan started to jack the car and when loosening the lug-nuts one got stripped. We didn't know at that moment but later when replacing the tire we realized the bolt was rusted and that caused the lug-nut to be to tight causing it to be stripped.
As Jonatan was removing the lug-nuts a car pulled up to ask if we needed some help. A man came and looked at the tire and said he would go get a fix-a-flat can. When he returned and started using the can we noticed the tire had three big holes in the back, so there was no way for the tire to be fixed.
Back to square one, we had trouble taking off the lug-nut so we were worried to make it worse and not be able to take it off. But we didn't have any other option. At that moment the man helping us said "Lord, we need you" and Natasha's eyes got widened. We were so thankful to know that God was watching and sent a fellow Christian to help us. At that moment we cried out the lug-nut loosened and came free, it was amazing.
We were able to finished changing that spare and return on our way.
In the process we found out this man and his wife attended the church we rolled up upon. It is something really simple but we were getting into the middle of the mountains and we just happened to be at the right place at the right time. The man said he was going to the store and saw us, so just imagine if he never went to the store at that particular time, all would have changed and we would not have had his help. That is how God's protection is for us when we honor him and call on his name. He is never late for anything.
Yes, tears were shed that night and we were so thankful to have met some fellow Christians. Today through this simple story we want to remind YOU and encourage YOU to keep trusting in God's and calling on his name. Nothing happens without reason.
