The time God covered our car with flowers. by @ZeffraSphinx

The time God covered our car with flowers.....................................................................................................................................The time God covered our car with flowers ..................................................................................................................................... It was early spring 2024 and we were hungry. My husband usually does the cooking. He enjoys it and is extremely good at it, but sometimes he doesn’t feel like it, which is fair. On those rare occasions we go out to eat. Usually we go for Mexican, because: A) We like it,and B) It’s the only good restaurant in town within a short driving distance. But today we felt like getting Chinese, which meant driving for about an hour to get to this small, family run, Chinese restaurant tugged away in a corner next to other businesses. But the food is that good that it’s worth the drive. Anyway, on the way there, I saw all the dogwood trees in bloom and thought:»It’d be cool if God made one flower fall and land on the hood of the car.« immediately followed up by:»No, God, don’t do that. I don’t wanna ask you to do something stupid.« regretting ever thinking something so foolish in the first place. We got our Chinese food and went back home. Don’t remember much about the rest of the day, except that I was extremely sad late in the evening after everyone else had gone to bed. Curled up in the corner of the sofa, staring up at the sky out the window, I remember praying in tears for a sign that God hadn’t forgotten me or was ignoring me. He had been silent with me for so long that it was physically hurting. I didn’t want to ask Him for anything, but at the same time I so desperately needed to either see or hear or feel something , that I couldn’t hold back and eventually, reluctantly asked Him anyway. And then regretted asking, apologized and instead asked Him to ignore my request, because He shouldn’t have to prove anything. Then went to bed feeling kinda ashamed for having a doubting heart in the first place. The next day, my husband and I had to go pay the water bill. As we stepped outside and walked towards the car, I saw that it was covered in dogwood flowers! My heart soared with joy as my spirit was lifted by God’s love and generosity. Just the other day, I thought that 1 small twig with flowers would have been awesome and here was the entire car covered with those same flowers! »Ask Him for a flower, He’ll shower you with bouquets« , I thought to myself, and put one of the bundles on the side of my hat. While my husband was driving, I was intently looking at the ground around all the dogwood trees between our house and our destination. For miles and miles, not a single other dogwood tree had shed their flowers. When we returned home, I reported this to my husband, but his response was:»Probably Squirrels« . Which, true, we do have squirrels in our yard… but why would they only bounce around on the 2 dogwood trees near our car and not the other ones? Whether God used the squirrels or something else to make the flowers fall on our car I don’t know. But I did see it as an answer to my desperate prayer the night before. God knows our needs before we even ask, and I believe that He covered our car with those flowers to show that He loves me ^_^ So whenever I feel sad, I think back to this moment and feel comforted =)....................................................................................................................................
