It was the officer who decided not to give the lady a ticket.
So, in Acts 12 an Angel broke Peter out of prison...should he go back?
Peter had people praying for Him. Perhaps when they were being pulled over, one or both of them quickly prayed? When do we simply in faith let God do what He will?
Is it wrong to pray for no ticket/jail when one's being pulled over? I have, and credit the Lord for answering my prayer for my son to not go to jail, and we knew he had a warrant. The cop did find the warrant...and (God softened his heart)...he let my son go. All I know is that was a nice cop, and we drove away praising the Lord...so what's wrong with a happy ending?
In most cases I would agree with your sentiment...but we must be cautious to not be so judgmental that we fail to see the Lord's work. If they weren't on the way to church, I might view this differently. As it is, that's too many coincidences for me. Church, birthday, God....for all we know a seed was planted through the testimony of it.
No matter how you slice it, this was a good thing. We needed a good one about a cop soon after that slap the student thing for balance, lol.
Peter was in prison for preaching Christ raised from the dead, not driving at speed down the road possibly putting other peoples lives at risk.
The speed limit is a regulation thats been tested to create a safer environment for all.
