   How God Blesses   
      
   "God does bless the tither. Last   
   month we ended up with $350 in the   
   bank, and we had expected to be broke.   
   We didn't have the big hospital bill   
   we had expected, because we never   
   made it to the hospital. Our baby was   
   born in the car. Everything was so   
   quick and easy, and my husband took   
   care of everything. We just went back   
   home. I had wanted to have the baby   
   at home anyway, but couldn't get anyone   
   to help. My husband didn't want   
   anything to do with it, but as it turned   
   out, he had to anyway. At the end of   
   the month his boss paid him for the   
   week he was home taking care of his   
   family. We had a firsthand experience   
   with the 'don't get involved' attitude.   
   Our old car overheated from driving   
   too fast as we tried to make the 45   
   miles to the hospital. We stopped in a   
   small town and tried to borrow a car   
   to finish the trip. Even a used car   
   dealer, who knows my husband, had an   
   excuse for every car in the lot. My   
   husband asked a lady for help-she   
   looked flustered, told him to go to the   
   drugstore, and quickly disappeared into   
   her house. But we were blessed with a   
   beautiful daughter and an experience   
   we will always remember. Perhaps the   
   biggest blessing is that my husband is   
   suddenly so much more interested in   
   the Truth. He has started reading my   
   back issues of The PLAIN TRUTH and   
   The GOOD NEWS."
