Yesterday, God sent my good friend, Hollis and his sweet wife to pray for me. Thanks you guys!!!
I worked with Hollis at the post office 20 years ago, but God still uses him for me today. This is a funny story of how He did that one day. (I'm going to tell another story in the future about how God gave me some money for my trip, and this is what happened the next day).
So I get this amazing gift for my trip. The next day, I'm driving to a job I had to do at my friend, Diana's, in La Jolla. I'm driving in a 25 mph zone, so I slowed down, but I guess I didn't slow down for long enough because right in front of me was a policeman standing on the side of the road waving me over.
Apparently, I was going 36 in a 25 mph zone.
I thought, "Oh, no! The money I received last night is going to have to go towards this ticket."
I said, "God, please get me out of it somehow."
As I was sitting there, I heard the mail carrier (Hollis) talking to the policemen. I was like, "God, you're so funny! You're going to send Hollis to help me out here."
So I said, 'Hollis!" He looked at me and said, "Lory??????"
Then he started telling the cops that whatever it was, I didn't do it.
I wasn't sure if I was allowed out of my car, but I did get out to give Hollis a hug. Then the other policeman said, "Lory?" When I looked over there, it was my old neighbor, Danny.
The first policeman said, "Oh my gosh, does she just know everyone?"
So I went over and talked to Danny. He was asking about Saige because he knew she had been paralyzed, so I got to tell him of her healing. The other cop was just shaking his head at the situation.
The end result....no ticket!!! Yay God. Did I do something wrong? Yes! Is God gracious and merciful? Yes!
