HE WAS COMPELLED TO HELP BY A STRANGE FORCE ;) Writing about my experience yesterday reminded me of when I was helping my sister move and we were driving on the Alaskan Highway into the Yukon Territory of Canada. It was late at night and we were on a stretch of the road where it was really remote. There are sections where its only gravel. You need to get gas because there are only a couple gas stations and you will run out of gas. Plus, they all close at 10pm and to make matters worse, the temperature was almost freezing. Well, we didnt get gas where we needed to and everything closed with a 1/4 take of gas left. My sister started worrying. I refused to worry and was trusting that God would do something. We went on for a while and nothing. Finally, off in the distance we saw a light and it looked like a house. We pulled up to it and there was one gas pump out in front of it. It definitely didnt look like a gas station, but apparently it was. Well, the time was 11:45pm, way past the closing time. All of a sudden this man comes out and says, Hi and literally starts pumping our gas. I said to him, Its a good thing you guys are still open. He said, Yeah... I dont know why were open. You could see that he was perplexed. He was trying to figure out why he was pumping our gas, nearly two hours after they closed. We got our gas and we went on our way. It was so funny. I wanted to tell the guy why he was pumping our gas so late, but I thought, Ill just leave it. Thank you Jesus :)
