Prophesy Fulfilled

b'Coming from Egypt, my family found it tough to live in Canada. We weren\\u2019t used to the weather, the system, the people, anything! We didn\\u2019t have much money, and my parents were trying to find jobs. Life wasn\\u2019t easy. Our main source of transportation was a local bus. We lived in a rented basement, and my mother was pregnant with my little sister.\\nOne day, we went shopping. At night. We had no car, and we were preparing for the baby\\u2019s arrival. We bought a stroller and a car seat and many other baby essentials. Unfortunately for us, we weren\\u2019t allowed to take the shopping cart near the bus stop. We didn\\u2019t think it wouldn\\u2019t be allowed, but come on! We were new to the country!\\nSo there we were, in the middle of the night, alone and with no way out. We stood in the center of the parking lot, praying. We prayed for a way out. Something. Anything.\\nDuring our prayer, a woman walked up to us and said, \\xe2\\u20ac\\u0153I have a car. My daughter is in there, but we have three spots. Would you like a lift home? I can put your things in my trunk.\\xe2\\u20ac\\x9d\\nWow. Without hesitation that she had been sent by God, we loaded our items into the trunk, hopped into the car, and the lady drove us home. I was only seven at the time, so I had no idea what was happening. As I look back on the experience, I know that it was a miracle.\\nIn the book of Matthew, Jesus said, \\xe2\\u20ac\\u0153If you have faith as a grain of mustard seed, you will tell this mountain, \\xe2\\u20ac\\u02dcMove from here to there,\\u2019 and it will move; and nothing will be impossible for you\\xe2\\u20ac\\x9d (Matthew 17:20). My family and I had faith that night. We trusted God enough to ask Him for help, and we received what we really needed that night. God cares about what you need too. Just ask Him. Believe in God through Jesus (John 14:1). Have faith. \\u2022 Rachel Hanna\\n\\u2022 How have you seen God provide? What does it show you about God when you see that He cares about people\\u2019s needs?\\n\\u2022 Have you ever encountered a miracle? Or a seeming coincidence that might\\u2019ve been from God? \\n\\u2022 Do you think it\\u2019s important to believe in miracles? Why or why not?\\n\\u2022 The greatest miracle God has done is raising Jesus from the dead. Why is the resurrection crucial to the Christian faith (1 Corinthians 15:12-20)? \\n\\xe2\\u20ac\\u0153With men this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.\\xe2\\u20ac\\x9d Matthew 19:26b (WEB)\\n\\xa0\\nRead Verses:\\nIsaiah 61:1-3; Luke 4:16-21; 2 Corinthians 3:12-18'
