Tires for the Van

A couple of weeks ago Gary was talking to someone at our church. During the conversation the friend noticed that the back tires on our van were worn out. (Neither Gary or I had noticed that the tires were so worn out that the cords were beginning to show on the outside edge.) He mentioned to Gary that he had a couple of tires that might possibly work. So last week Gary was at the store and realized he was near this man's house and decided to go by and check out the tires. Unfortunately they were too big for the van. As he was leaving their subdivision Gary drove pass another friend's house and noticed their garage door was open so he stopped to say hello. Gary explained what he was doing in their subdivision and our friend then mentioned that he had a couple of tires that might work. They were tires that he had taken off his trailer 5 years ago and had decided to save the best two - having no clue that 5 years latter we would need them. The tires fit well.

God's provision didn't stop there. He even provided a friend that helped Gary mount them and even asked to have our old tires to use on some farm equipment he had.

We have been so blessed. Two free tires, free mounting and free tire disposal. God is good and provides all our needs.
