Hellish Nightmare--One of His tests

Just wanted to share a way that God tested me and gave me understanding that it WAS a test.
A year ago I had a nightmare. I was in a boat and a young man was trying to get into the boat. I knew that if he did, he would kill me. I was trying to drown him with the boat paddle to prevent him from getting into the boat. The guy had the bluest eyes I've ever seen.
A couple of weeks after that nightmare, I was sitting in my car at McDonalds eating breakfast. A HUGE boy passed close to my car talking on his cell phone. He glanced at me and he had THOSE eyes. My first reaction was to lock the car door. Then I froze--I instantly KNEW that I was going to be tested in trust.
Sure enough,the boy got off the phone and approached my car. He asked me if I could take him to work. I asked where work was--it was south and I was going north and told him so. He started to walk off and the thought that went through my mind?--CRUD. I started the car, drove up to the kid and motioned for him to get in. He was from Ohio working here in Kentucky and trying to stay out of trouble. He had a girlfriend and a baby. He FILLED over half of my car. I witnessed to him, told him God bless him, thanked God for allowing me to serve HIM and went on to work still alive and well.
Still don't like eyes that color. He has tested me in other ways over the last four years--very deliberate and in ways that I can't miss the points made.

How did you know God wasn't telling you not to take him anywhere for your own safety?

Re: Hellish Nightmare--One of His tests

God says that He will clothe, house, feed, heal and protect us if we don't doubt His promises. Do you have faith in the word of God? If we fail to have faith in His word, then He won't help us. He said that there were some things that we would have to do before He would answer us. He CAN'T go back on His word because God cannot lie. It's up to us to have faith, repent and become obedient.
Yeshua Bless You
