Seat Belt Buzzer Story
I was driving to school one morning on the freeway with my seat belt buzzer making its annoying noise. This had been going on for three days nonstop. I was broke. Driving on fumes for two days broke. I asked the Lord for help. As I passed by three Quonset huts on the service road next to the freeway the Lord said, “Go there”.
After I finished school I went back to the place He had showed me. The door was open at the middle building. No sign. No mechanic’s tools. No car racks. Empty. A man came out of what looked like an office and asked what I wanted. He looked like Teddy Swims in biker clothes. “Do you work on cars”? He look perplexed, but said “Well, I can, what’s going on”? “This seat belt buzzer won’t stop buzzing no matter what I do”.
He worked on the car for 45 minutes and said it was taken care of. “What do I owe you?” “Ah, (another odd look) $3”? I handed him my credit card. “You don’t have $3?” “No”. “Oh. Just go and bring it when you can”.
I paid him when I got my next paycheck. The Lord told me to pray for him. I prayed for him daily for about a year. I wonder where he’s preaching now.
1 Peter 5:7
casting all your care upon Him, for He cares for you.
Isaiah 43:4
Since you were precious in My sight, You have been honored, And I have loved you; Therefore I will give men for you, And people for your life.
Matthew 10:29-31
Are not two sparrows sold for a copper coin? And not one of them falls to the ground apart from your Father’s will. 30 But the very hairs of your head are all numbered. 31 Do not fear therefore; you are of more value than many sparrows.
