[:en]In the previous two years, God had spared both the wife and son of Mr. Randy Kilgore from almost certain death. But he had incurred tremendous amount of medical expenses for them. As a result, he had to sell a 1992 Volvo station wagon with side-impact airbag protection for the kids and bought a second hand old station wagon with 80k+ miles and no side-impact airbag protection for his kids. His house and savings had all disappeared due to medical expenses. As he was riding the old station wagon, the wipers slammed back and forth and he began to complain. Suddenly, he instantly felt ashamed. He forgot that God had spared his wife and son from death and yet here whinning about “things” that he had lost. He could felt his ungratefulness and asked God to forgive him.
Sometimes, trials of the moment strip us of the memory of God’s protection and provision. We should always be thankful and be patient for His unending and unconditional love.[:]
