Keep your eyes open

Miracles abound.

I had a very long post about this...but let me just sum it up with this picture and a brief explaination:

42,000 pounds of corn, a trailer, a semi...and one not great road. It got dark, we should have failed and had flat tires, trouble seeing...problem after problem...but the Hero often writes His story so as to appear to show up when everything looks to be sure to fail. Otherwise, you might miss it and think you accomplished something yourself.

We ended up pulling this truck, plus about 20,000 pounds of the corn still in it with both Fords. We found out after the rather effortless pull (that really happened?) that the truck driver's brakes were locked the entire time we were effortlessly pulling him...in other words, he was working against us, not helping us.

But then...it was obvious that the real story was Who was working for us.

Miracles abound...are we paying attention?
