A True Story
Living here in the Midwest (USA) and very close to Lake Michigan, it is common for us to have accumulating snowfall. When this happens, I use my John Deere tractor to snow blow not only our driveway, but several others in our neighborhood.
A few days ago, when finishing up the last drive, my snow blower stopped throwing snow. I could see it was still getting power to the drive pulley, but the auger was not turning. I went home, broke the unit down, and found I either had a bad (blower) transmission or the transmission pulley had stripped, either a bad scenario. Unfortunately, it was forecast to snow six to eight inches not the next, but the following day.
Since it was late in the day, I told my wife I would search for part the next morning. I had a feeling it may be difficult to find what was needed in time to be ready for the big snowfall.
The next day my wife said she would help search for the part. Before we got started, I said, “Let’s ask our angels for assistance. Let’s ask that they lead us to the perfect solution to this problem,” so we did.
However, as we searched both via telephone and online, we found nobody had the parts in stock. We could get them, but it would take several days to a few weeks. I continued to search, while unbeknownst to me, my wife had an idea to search Facebook Marketplace. (Since I don’t have a Facebook account, I would not have considered this option.)
After I got off the phone with a potential supplier, my wife said, “Here is a new snow blower on Facebook Marketplace that looks like it would work.” (Keep in mind a new snow blower is almost three thousand dollars now, so I was not initially interested.)
She continued, “It’s been for sale for over a year. It looks like a guy purchased it and never used it. It is still on the pallet. He is just asking nine hundred dollars!”
A little more backstory, the transmission replacement cost was five hundred eighty-one dollars, so a complete unit for nine hundred was an incredible deal, if it was all there.
The next piece; where is it located? We found it was in a small town only about thirty minutes south of the town where our business is located. “No way!” I exclaimed.
So now it was time to make contact with the seller. My wife pointed me in the direction of sending the seller a message. I told the seller we were interested and wondered if it was still available.
The seller quickly responded that it was indeed still available! Now the “worry” crept in whether the unit would be complete. I reasoned that if I could get just the main section, I could always pull that transmission and replace my bad one, even if everything was not there.
I sent back a reply, “Is there any chance you would take six hundred dollars for the unit? If so, could we pick it up today?”
After waiting a few minutes, the seller sent back a note. He would indeed accept my offer, and I / we could pick it up that afternoon! I couldn’t believe it!
My wife and I made our way to the small town and met with the very nice owner of the snow blower. As I inspected the unit, I could tell not only were the parts I had to have there, but I found it was indeed, a complete unit! Oh my gosh!
The owner was happy to get the snowblower out of his garage and my wife and I explained how it would be going to help a number of people in our neighborhood. He seemed pleased.
We loaded the unit up, drove home and within an hour the new unit was on my tractor and operational, ready for the big snowfall! We were able to clear our drive and those of our neighbors the next day! Everything worked perfectly!
As I contemplate what had to happen in order for this to be put together, it is mind boggling.
The original owner had to purchase the perfect unit to fit my tractor and store it for over a year!
It had to be listed for sale on Facebook Marketplace.
My wife had to be involved in helping me search for this part or this avenue wouldn’t have even been explored!
It had to be relatively close and it was not far away; just a little further than my drive to our shop! Wow!
The original owner had to be willing to accept an offer that helped me to feel comfortable making the purchase since it wasn’t clear if all the parts were there.
The person selling the unit was available and willing for us to pick it up that very day!
I’m still marveling at this. It has the “buzz” of high energy vibration around it. (Have you ever felt that?) I’m so grateful to our angels! Now, every time I use the snowblower, I will think of the amazing help that we received just in time for the big snowfall. We are also now set for years to come!
If you haven’t experienced your “spiritual support staff,” know that your angels and entire “Spirit Team” are that close! They are so happy when we ask for their assistance. It is their mission to support us! (Can you imagine how bored you would be if you were never asked to do anything?)
Consider asking your angels and entire Spirit Team for help with all things, whether mundane or profound. Watch what happens! When you experience results, embrace it as a clear answer to your request! It is! You will likely be able to have further confirmation of their assistance by the accompanying high vibrational feeling of Love that surrounds it. It is beautiful. What a Universe!
