My
Testimony of Divine Protection (Psalm 105:1)
I
have a powerful testimony to share with you today about God's peace,
protection, and forgiveness. Two weeks ago, my granddaughter had been staying
with me for 11 days. As I returned her to the airport in my BMW, I encountered
a situation that tested my faith and ultimately showed me the extent of God's
grace.
Upon
arriving at the car rental facility, I discovered that all the cars were gone.
Thankfully, I found another rental facility nearby offering luxury cars at a
discount in honor of my birthday. I was able to secure a fully loaded 23 BMW,
allowing me to continue with my plans for the day.
After
a busy day of meetings and errands, I stopped to get gas. As I attempted to
leave the gas station, a car blocked my path. A man approached me with a gun
and a crowbar, demanding my keys. In that moment, a blanket of peace enveloped
me, reminding me of the promise of perfect peace for those who keep their minds
focused on God.
Despite
the fear and uncertainty of the situation, I felt a whisper from the Holy
Spirit urging me to comply. I handed over my keys, asked for permission to take
my phone and wallet, and then peacefully left the scene. Within moments, the
perpetrators fled, and I was able to contact the authorities for help.
When
the police arrived to investigate, they were astonished by my calm demeanor.
The officer noted that in his years on the force, he had never encountered
someone so composed after a carjacking. I shared with them the source of my
peace and gratitude, citing the verse that speaks of God's peace that surpasses
all understanding.
As
I recounted the events of that day, the officers listened intently, amazed by
the outcome of a situation that could have ended much differently. I was
grateful for their understanding and for the opportunity to share the power of
God's presence in the midst of chaos.
This
experience served as a reminder of the importance of faith and trust in God's
plan, even in the face of danger. I am thankful for His protection and grace,
and I pray that this testimony serves as a testament to His unfailing love and
provision in all circumstances.
