The Lord Came To My Rescue...


I kid you not. The Lord just came to my rescue. About 11:45 am, my youngest son comes to my bedroom and tells me that the bathroom door is locked and he doesn't know who did it. (Right!) I'm furious and immediately go into panic mode because there's no key to unlock it and the worst part, it's our only bathroom!

I decided to go into my bedroom and look in my pen holder on my desk for some mini screwdrivers to use to try to unlock it myself. I found two. I grabbed my cellphone and proceeded down the hallway to the bathroom door. I inserted one of the screwdrivers and began to poke and turn to no avail. So I called L at work and explained the situation. I continued to poke and turn with him on the line. It must have been loud and he must have sensed my frustration, because he asked me to stop before I break the handle and it can't be fixed. I complied with his request and he told me that he would just come home and try to fix it, so we hung up. I walked back to my room to set down my cellphone and screwdrivers when suddenly, I got this strange urge to walk back to the bathroom door. So, I proceeded back down the hallway, to the bathroom door with no tools in hand and grabbed the door handle, and turned. To my shock and amazement, it opened. 

Dumbfounded, I ran back to my bedroom and called L at work to let him know that he didn't have to come home after all because the door was unlocked. He responded with, "It was the Lord. Now, go tell your son that he's not in big trouble anymore." And I responded with, "You're right. I will tell him right now. Have a great lunch. Love you. Bye!"

The lesson I took from this experience is this:

Psalm 46:1 
 
New King James Version
 (NKJV)
 
 1 God is our refuge and strength,
A very present help in trouble.

I was in panic mode and He came, reminded me of His presence and all that He can do during one's time of need.  I am a Believer. The Lord moves in mysterious ways and today, He came to my rescue.


LOVE & BLESSINGS,  
Jaime
