The Lord helped us remove oil stains from our driveway……!
For several years we have tried various products to get rid of large oil stains from our concrete driveway. Both our vehicles have leaked oil over time and left stains that seemed to be permanent. Well meaning neighbors and hardware store employees had given us their ideas and advice, but nothing was working.
One morning during my daily Bible reading, I read two passages in Deuteronomy 27 which referred to “setting up large stones, and whitewashing them with lime.” (Deut. 27: 2, 4)
The thought occurred to me – “could lime take out oil stains out of our driveway?” I decided to ask the computer this question and came upon a recipe for removing oil stains using lime and turpentine. My husband and I purchased the ingredients, followed the recipe and instructions (prayed over it) – and found out that it actually worked!
In our walk with the Lord, we sometimes think that God is not interested in such trivial matters as an oil stain. But we were reminded that our faith is not compartmentalized – it is a daily relationship with our Heavenly Father who loves us more than we can imagine. He cares about everything in our lives. We only have to ask Him for help – and then follow through with the directions He gives us.
By following through with following Him -
- He will help us remove more than oil stains from our lives !
