In 1986, after starting the Hurting Women's Ministry, I realized that I needed a car for this ministry, as well as for my personal use.
One day while I was out walking, I started thinking about the car that I needed. I began to pray that my Heavenly Father would provide me with a car that would meet my needs. As soon as I prayed, He gave me this scripture: "Delight thyself also in the LORD; and He shall give thee the desires of thine heart. Commit thy way unto the LORD; trust also in Him; and He shall bring it to pass" (Psalm 37: 4, 5).
I thanked Him for showing me that He would meet my need. Every day for three years, I thanked Him for the car. I knew one day, I would have that car, and no one could have convinced me otherwise. I knew that God loved me and that He wanted to meet my need.
How sweet it was, the day that God provided me with a car! It had everything that I had asked Him for. Praise His Holy Name!
Being the owner of a new car was a great way to witness for Him. I was as happy to share what He did for me as I was about receiving a new car.
I have many testimonies of how God has provided for me since this ministry began. He is meeting all my needs. I know from experience that mountains are stepping stones to Glory, for I have taken many steps and we are headed right up to Glory.
