Also I will like to gladly update that one of my many prayers have been answered in such a way coincidence could not explain.

One of the major issues I was having was my car hood latch was broken and I needed to add oil to prevent the engine from seizing. So I couldn't drive my car at all. which sounds trivial but Im currently transitioning from Korea to the united states and Im technically homeless at the moment. So not using my car meant I could not look for homes which meant i need to spend another day without a place to go..or continue to pay for a hotel. The struggle to find an apartment was terrible, and was becoming more and more stressing.

I drove to three different body shops that day, The first one simply could not fix the problem they were unfamiliar with the type of car I have, the second body shop was simply too busy to tend to my car and referred me over to another one in particular. After arriving at that body shop, the mechanic explained it would be roughly $400.00 before parts to fix a hood latch... however he would try to do a quicker method to reduce the cost but it was a very slight chance.

During that time in the waiting lobby the look of discouragement was written all over my face because this is simply one more thing that I now have to pay for and worry about and I can see my savings account being drained by the dollar. (I've spent alot of money transitioning and I no longer have employment or income). A woman approached me and asked if everything was okay, and I explained to her what was going on and how it was effecting me. After talking for a little longer it turns out this woman is a realtor, and she happens to know the area quite well. She was very sweet, she even prayed with me inside of the body shop. She offered to help me and actually helped me find a place to live the next day. :) In addition to that shortly after we prayed I looked through the window to see that my car's hood was standing tall and the mechanic was able to identify and fix the issue 100% for just under $40.00.

For me it's not about the money saved, in fact I used that money God blessed me with to feed a hitch hiker and buy him a bus ticket home. I even brought him to my hotel to shower and get a change of clothes. It was the fact that God had spoken to me..so loudly that even if closed my eyes and covered my ears Id still hear him. He brought me to the tip of a breaking point, to wipe it all away in a matter of minutes...literally minutes all of my immediate problems were solved. Then to further reinforce his blessing. He offered me the chance to redeem myself and to pass on the blessing to another who was also at their breaking point and show me that I truly don't have it that bad and even if i did that He would be there to come save me. This message was the exact nudge in the right direction that I needed in a very desperate time..

Also update on the man he sent me a text message to show that he's back with his family and is doing well.

Thank you all for your love and prayer

Wow. That is such a God moment. Thank you for blessing us by sharing your story.

I was feeling discouraged by this site (mainly the BDf, it's a war zone), but you remind me that God still works and moves, even when we don't see or understand what is happening around us.

God bless and keep you, brother. You are in our prayers.

I am so glad that God used me to respond to you. We as his children have to open our hearts and let him use us to show how wonderfully merciful and caring he is. I understand that some I'm days are dark but keep seeking him and everything is possible!!!! I will continue to pray for you and I know that he has a wonderful plan for your life. Great and amazing things to come!!!! Praise God! Have a great day and keep praying!
