This isn't earth shattering, but it's a real example:
I was driving cross-country this weekend and was almost out of gas. I had about 13 miles left in my tank and, according to my navigation system (update downloaded the day before), the nearest gas station was 15 miles BEHIND me. I said a quick prayer and took the next exit in order to turn around. At the bottom of the ramp there was a modern gas station!
I have no doubt that I could have made it to the gas station behind me. On several occassions I drove for miles on an empty tank, surpassing the tank capacity and the best MPG I've ever gotten. When I filled up it took every ounce of fuel the tank could hold.
God takes care of His. Of course there are bigger examples, like miraculous healing, but skeptics won't believe that anyway, and I like to pay attention to all the small stuff that the omnipotent God does for me every day.

I don't think there is enough room on here to write how many times God has made a way for us. We've been married 17 years, but I can give you one example that has forever stayed with me:
When our daughter was 1, we had always been taught to tithe first and God will provide the rest. Well, we had done that and there was no money left for diapers. I was so worried, which was wrong not to trust a promise from God. Well, while on my way to get my husband from work, we only had one car, I stopped at a small shop outside his office to kill time. A lady asked if I wanted to take a survey. Normally, I would say no, but I had no money and plenty of time. So, I said yes. It was a DIAPER survey! What I did was answer questions. Then, I was sent home with a 60 pkg of diapers. Every Monday, I was to return the survey, about how much it held, tape issues, etc, and I would receive another package of 60 diapers. This was for ONE month! Is God not good?

He sure makes a way. One way that I am thankful for everyday is that He took us out of paying rent into a home that we do not have to pay a cent for! Thank you Lord!
Lately I had no credit and I wanted to buy a car. Things were looking good until the banks turn me down. I was upset. I told God that I know that He has a plan. The plan was I got a better car(a Lexus) at a good price and was approved a 2 days. God is good all the time and all the time God is good.
I hope this encourage you.
Be blessed.

yes. I want to share u one experience on how GOD moved in my life.I am married to an ex PBA basketball player. But we are not rich.We live life only one day at a time. What GOD gives us today is the provision that we only have. One day my husband came home from a usual every afternoon subdivision game. He said...Ma look at my shoes its heavily broken. My husband stands 6"4 and his foot size around 12. I said dont worry i will save to buy u a new one. But he answered but the problem is i have a tournament this saturday. Today was a Sunday so i have 5 days to buy the shoes for the tournament. Thursday came but i only had 2000 on hand. wanting to buy the shoes i told him i wud look for an on sale shoe that probably might fit him. He said dont spend ur money.if u do we will have zero balance. Since Sunday I kept asking GOD...Lord please just this once give my husband a new pair for the tournament. But Saturday came no shoes was available. I felt sad for him when i woke up. Minutes later his team companions came and was looking for him. i said..dad ur friends are here. oh no! how will u play when u have no shoes. Then he said...dont worry i fixed it. i said u did? What did u do? I placed some rugby on it.What? RUGBY? if u jump it might break i said. Dont worry it wont. I will be careful. I felt so down and went into tears as i thought of my husbands condition.Then i prayed. I said LORD it breaks my heart to see this happening.Once u said my child if u be faithful to me i wil prove to u my love. I cried LORD!!Where r u? Help me. minutes later my youngest son came in w a big smile. I said jo did u see dad play? im so worried w his shoes. its broken. Then he laughed and told me...what are u saying mom? u did not see daddys new shoes? I said ,new shoes? yes an old teamate arrived from states and gave dad a koby brian shoes!. i said ur kidding me! its true ma. U should see dads smile. Very handsome daddy! God is never too late and He is always on time. So u see GOD can make a way when there seems to be no way. The best tool is to believe,obey and to trust. GOD BLESS U!

How wonderful that you've asked a question where Christians can share simple and not so simple things God has done in their lives. I was encouraged just reading the other responses.
My husband and I were headed for divorce about 3 years ago. I went to Bible study one morning and the teaching was about how to submit to your husband, the head of the household. One of the things I learned was to "shutest thou upest" when I felt like fighting to be right. I learned that when I am obedient to God first (being submissive-NOT SUBSERVIENT-to my husband) and obedient to my husband second (expressing my opinion and not getting offended if he doesn't take my advice) God will bless my efforts.
Since I am pretty opinionated, I just knew this wouldn't work, but I tried it repeatedly for a couple of weeks. When he finally realized I had stopped fighting all the time, my husband was so shocked that we started talking again. We "dated" again. I learned to love him "warts and all" and to respect his opinion, even if I didn't agree with him. He learned to cherish me in a way I never thought possible.
I can't tell you the joy I feel whenever my husband says, "whatever makes you happy, honey." God healed a seriously damaged relationship.
God bless.

Yes he will, God has made a way for us to be able to have eternal life. All we have to do is accept Jesus Christ as our Personal Savior. Read the Bible and Pray.
Yes, When I was told that I had a tumor, at the base of the brain stem on the spinal cord. I could of died, but God showed me that Life is fragile and that I could live a full life. I had surgery on my neck, I could of came out paralyzed, but I did not, I could of died, but I did not, it was not my time.
Though my sister passed away 9 days after my surgery. I knew God was in full contral and making away for me to be a witness to others.
The only way is through Jesus Christ.

God made a way for me to get help for my son. I have him started in a behavioral health program and he was diagnosed with ODD (Oppostional Defiant Disorder). It would have cost us about 225 per day, twice a week, out of pocket. He then ran away from home again. Police and family services were called. When the case worker came to our house and saw that nothing was wrong on the parental end, she stated that she is opening the case so that they would pay for his therapy !! God is so awesome, that could have gone wrong in SO many ways!!!!!!! Thank you for the opp. to share

ONLY God can find a way when there is none.
I've never put God to the test - but he has put me there once or twice. Through his grace, I'll find out some day how I did. Faith is not about "proof"... it's quite the opposite. If you need proof, why would you need faith? Build up your strength in God and you'll no longer have to ask... you'll just know.

Yes, in many ones, but here, let me share this one in particular.
A number of years ago, my 16 year old son shocked us with the news that his girlfriend of only a few months was carrying his child. My son had been brought up in our home, under a Christian upbringing. However, not only were we faced with this situation, but also his girlfriend's parents said that she was to have an abortion. We called out to God, and visited the parents, and offered to bring the child up ourselves whilst their daughter finished her education. We offered Emma to live with us, if she wanted to keep the baby, but this was a huge decision to move out from her parents home at such a young age.
Despite this, Emma was taken to the G.P. and against her wishes, her mother organised that the abortion take place. A date was set, but the evening before she was due to go in for the abortion, Emma decided to move in with us.
My grandson is 9 now, and there have been many struggles, but we called out to God, and He answered our prayer. Our prayer was inline with God's will, as He hates abortions. God is the giver and taker of life.
I look at my beautiful grandson now, and Praise God that He made a way where there was no way.
