Hiccup, X-Rays & Worry-Free

My car had a hiccup this week.   I have known for the last month or so that sometime soon my breaks needed to be replaced, but the time to replace them came sooner than I had hoped.   Friday when I was in the parking lot of the Chiropractor, I found that I couldn't back up - I forced the car as I needed to back up to get out  - but it felt like I was backing over an animal.  The rear right end kept raising higher than normal and then would cluck.   The breaks also sounded like metal against metal.   I called the shop in Gridley (the town I live in) and they said they could look at it in a few hours - I was surprised that they could look at it so soon.  God is soo good how He works stuff out like that.  So I took the car in to the shop.  Bethany (my cousin) was so kind to let me use her car for the afternoon.  She worked at on in town and I walked over from the shop to her work, the library, to get her car - she got a ride home from here dad on his way home from work.    I then headed into Bloomington (the closes city to where I live - about 20-30 minutes away).  I had two different appointments (at different places) for X-Rays, one for my hips and the other for my neck - both recommended by my chiropractor.   Comes out that my neck is normal-ish for my age, I am only on phase one of three in arthritis in my neck.   As for my hips, I haven't found out yet.  The results are suppose to arrive at my Chiropractor's office either today or tomorrow.    If the X-Ray shows, one of my Chrio's thoughts, that my joint is abnormally shaped then he will work with that - which would explain all the noise of popping and pain I've had in it for the past 8 or so months.  However if the X-Ray doesn't come back with anything helpful then he will likely send me for an MRI to see if there's other things that X-Ray doesn't show that will help figure out the reason behind the pain.  

Anyways I my car was finished being repaired Saturday morning!  Wow God, you worked fast on that, thank you.    The repair cost was $740.84.   I did get a loan to cover that as I have almost no money whatsoever.   With that beings said, I am not worried about the money for that, even though I don't have it nor do I have a job.  I'm nor worried for several reasons, but for one I take very literally Philippians 4:6-7.

"Don't worry about anything; instead pray about everything.  Tell God what you need, and thank him for all he has done.  Then you will experience God's peace, which exceeds anything we can understand.  His peace will guard your hearts and minds as you live in Christ Jesus."  - Philippians 4:6-7

Not that I am the best at this, as I still do worry a lot at times, but I'm working on not worrying as much and praying and believing and trusting a lot more.  Secondly, God has told me that He will provide for me.  That's a promise He gave me a while ago, and I am holding on to it.  Especially over the last year, and even 6 months, I have seen proof of that over and over and over again.   It amazes me how I can still doubt, yet I do at times.   But I'm not worried about this $741-ish, for I know that God is with me and God will provide.  Whether He has someone just walk up to me and give me all of it or He sends a lot of people over time with pieces of it or in some other way, maybe He want's the money to come via the Garage sale coming up that were doing in the first weekend of October.  I don't know, but I do know that God's got it and I don't have to worry.  Yes, I will be saving money to start paying it back, but it's not likely that will happen anytime soon as I don't have a job.
