Olive Gets a Tow

Al hooking up Olive

I have to back up a bit to share this story and to ask everyone to pray for Al and Linda. We spent one night in Owen Sound and the next day Olive wouldn't start....we didn't worry as we had faith that God would take care of us as He has done every step of the way.

Well this is where it gets interesting. Our tow truck driver shows up and takes good care of our girl. As we are driving over to the mechanic, Al begins to share what is going on in his life. Last year he and his wife Linda lost their 9 year old daughter when she died of a misdiagnosed Strep infection. They spent days taking her back and forth to the hospital but they kept sending them home saying she just had chickpox. Well it turned out to be much more serious and that Saturday they took her back to the hospital and she died a few hours later. Al is a warm jovial fellow but you can see the pain behind his smile. They are struggling to keep their marriage together and also are involved in a heated lawsuit. We asked if we could pray for him and his wife, he said they weren't christian but that would be very nice. We gave him a hug and said goodbye. So if you could keep them in your prayers I know the Lord will touch their lives.

Mike ( Georgian Bay Motors) and our Hero (to his right) took a look at Olive and had her in and out in 10 minutes. Just a loose wire....no charge! Thank you Lord and how amazing You are to use us to bring some words of comfort to a man in need. Praise to you.
