I needed to mow my yard today, which usually takes close to a tank of gas to complete. However, I knew that I was short on gas in the tank, and being that our finances are tight right now, I did not want to buy any more gas for the mower just yet. So I added what I had to the mower, giving me less than half of a tank full — nowhere near enough to mow the entire yard. But with hope that I could at least get the front done, I started mowing.
After finishing the front and side (happy to have achieved that much), I checked the tank and saw that there was hardly any gas left. I was going to put the mower away, but my wife suggested that I do as much of the back as possible, and so I started on that. Well, I was able to mow the entire back, finishing all of the yard; and when I checked the tank again, it still had some gas left.
This was nothing short of a miracle to me, and I am so encouraged in the Lord. He reminded me through this that He is indeed our provider. And this follows on the heels of some other encouragement I had received yesterday.
