brand-new  one,  which  I  could  upgrade  every  three
          years.  It  felt  like  an  unbelievable  opportunity,  so  I

          agreed.

          Then,  the  Lord  showed  His  favor—on  Monday

          morning,  my  boss  unexpectedly  informed  me  that  I

          would be receiving a bonus. He had no idea I was in the
          process of getting a car, but the amount was enough to

          cover the down payment.

          I began cleaning offices to help cover my car payments,

          and with that, a new chapter of my life began.


          A Promise to God

          I told the Lord right then and there that I would use this

          car  for  two  purposes  only:  to  take  people  to  church

          whenever I could and to get to work. I kept that promise
          for over twenty years, and by God's grace, I never had

          an accident or received a ticket.

          At 65, I retired, but I continued to clean. At 85, I stopped

          driving—but I still maintained a clean driving record.

          Glory to God.
