On one of Eric's audio blogs shortly after the accident he said that he would like for God to just give us a car. We had never shopped for a car before, they've always seemed to fall into our laps. And yet we still began to frantically scurry from one car dealership to the next searching for the best deal on a reliable car. We even signed some papers on a really nice van but backed out because I didn't have a peace about it. Anyway--God has given us a car. The parents of some friends heard about our situation and are giving us their car. I am extremely grateful for what God has provided, and yet at the same time dealing with some difficult emotions. I can receive easily from family (just ask my parents!) or even my church community, but I've only met Taylea's parents once so it feels so much like charity. Now that I've been honest with my feelings, I'm going to try to move past them and focus on God's provision. This car should meet our family's needs for quite some time. We might need something with a third row when we have another baby, but after my evening with the boys that won't happen for quite some time!
