Turning Point II?

On December 16, 2007, I posted an entry called "Turning Point", wherein Mrs. Ray had all kinds of trouble being locked out of her apartment and things. [Increase spooky factor x5: Today is JUNE 16, exactly 3½ years later!] Well, yesterday she made a two hour trip to buy tires; they were out of stock so she had to drive two hours back home. By the time she had gotten home, the clutch in her car went out. I can get the parts tomorrow to repair it. Finally, Mrs. Ray went out to bush-hog our pasture (about 12 acres) and the hydraulic pump literally blew out on the tractor.
So, she wrote a post on Facebook stating all this, then she asks "Is God trying to tell me to stay away from machinery?" God isn't "trying" to tell anyone anything. But my heart breaks that I can't tell Mrs. Ray what I think is going on! Also, Mrs. Ray is nearly broke - payday is Friday. But she is out of cash and her cards are just about maxed. I have a bit more than that, so I "paid" her $50 for groceries. I don't think she gets how much I still care for her. I just wish I could explain all this.
These few days are very interesting and emotionally trying.

I have read your blog over the years--I have a similar situation. I think this is an opportunity from God to you to begin the restoration of your marriage with friendship. I have had things happen in my sitch and prayed to God for help, sometimes it was answered within 24 hours, sometimes within 1-2 weeks or months. Good luck to you.
