Everyone that frequents the Apologetics and Theology board already know this so don't waste your time reading it, lol :yes

On Monday (3/8) I took my car to the body shop to get repaired. My insurance company gave me an Enterprise Rental Car. I selected to get the collision waiver from Enterprise (the one that states that no matter how bad you mess up the rental car, they won't hold you responsible and will pay for the damages themselves). Well, that cost about $23 a day which I really didn't have since I would have the car for 3 days ($69). So the next day, on my way to work, I figured ok, I'm only going to have the car one more day. Surely I can drive it and not get into an accident or anything. So I called Enterprise and asked them to take the collision waiver off. So, I got to work and as I was turning into my parking space, I hit the car next to me. Well, I panicked big time and called Enterprise and asked them to add the collision waiver back on and they said they would. Then I reported it to my insurance company. Well, at this point I'm not thinking in terms of right or wrong, I'm just scared. As soon as I came to my senses, it started eating at me. I lied and fixing that rental car was my responsibility. But my flesh was fighting me hard saying, I'm already broke, I can't afford my insurance now, this is going to make it go up even more, etc. So it continued to eat away at my conscience for several more days. Here I am daily trying to seek God's face and I'm in the middle of a lie! So finally I prayed to God and asked him to give me the strength to do the right thing. Then I sowed a faith seed into one of my favorite ministries believing that God would give me that strength. No, you cannot buy things from God, but he does honor anything you sow into His kingdom, be it time, talent, or treasure. As soon as I clicked "Donate" I felt the power come on me. I knew I had the victory and was going to tell the truth. So the next day, I called Enterprise. I told them the whole story. They said, don't worry about it, we are going to cover it. I said, do you understand that I called to add the collision waiver back on AFTER the accident? He said, yes, don't worry about it, we are going to cover it. Now there was a fair amount of damage to that car. What would make a company like Enterprise pay to fix a car they know darn good and well is my responsibility and that my insurance would pay for it? It can only be the favor of God!!! That is UNHEARD OF to me! Why would they pay for something they don't have to pay for? It's insane, totally insane! I mean who does that?! And then to top it all off, it turns out you cannot put the collision waiver back on after taking it off, they just said they would put it back on for me for some unknown reason (can you say "God", LOL!). But techhnically they can't put the waiver back on, it is against policy and the computer won't allow it. So since the coverage wasn't technically on there except for the first day, they only charged me for one day of the collision waiver coverage!!! There's God saving me $46 bucks! Enterprise is also paying for the damage to the other person's vehicle. So I have come out totally unscathed!!! There will be no effect on my insurance premium at all. This could be nothing but God's favor!!! I repented, told the truth, and God did "exceedingly abundantly above anything I could ask or think!"

Psalms 5:12 "For thou, LORD, wilt bless the righteous; with favour wilt thou compass him as with a shield."
