Now the next day, I thought about taking the van to the mechanic, but since it was sunny-they worked. Argh! I called my mechanic and he needs to see them when they won't work to diagnose the problem.
Okay, fine. The following morning, with the dew all over my windshield, they wouldn't work, but by the time I got home, and oh, yeah, it was sunny, they worked!!
"Be ready in season, and out of season." 2 Timothy 4:2
Lord, may I do what You created me to do whether I feel like it or not.

Great scripture to heed. Hey..until you can get it checked try RAIN-X. It's a liquid you can wipe on your windshield that will keep the rain rolling off.
Great lesson Karen in patience too! May how the Lord must love us when we work and when we don't. You make me smile!
HA! That's how it goes sometimes, isn't it? Like the child with the fever who's at a cooll 98.6 by the time you see the doctor.
Great lesson, though. Like Jeanie said, He loves us when we work and when we don't. :0)
figures. just like trying to tell the mechanic about a noise that was there until you pulled into their parking lot.
And they never misbehave when the mechanic is watching--only when you need them to work!
Shall I pray they act up, so he can know how to fix them?
I recently asked the Lord to show me what areas in my life needed fixing. Now I've got rain all over my windshield, and faulty wipers! But I know Who to take me to, for an overhaul of the soul...
JUST had this talk with my 8 year old. Timely post! :O)
I work in tech support so I'm all too familiar with the fact that something doesn't work until you have the person looking at it who can fix it!
According to my husband, potatoes will fix your problem. His grandmother always carried a cut in half potato in her car in case her windshield wipers stopped working. She said if you rub it on your windshield it works like Rain-X.
i love the way you brought the Scripture right in. what a great example, you smartie!
Gotta love the irony of wipers not working in damp weather. ;)
Oh I am sorry but I actually chuckled :) Those pesky wipers!!!
Parsley, that's a great idea!
Stephanie, I have never heard of that solution. Hmmmmmm...thanks!
I'm sooo glad I'm not the only one who has this type of problem disappearing as I go into the mechanic! :P
I know, I know, after I fumed a bit, it IS funny. sigh...I guess. :)
Wonder if the Lord thinks of us that way too?
Well, if that's now aggravating I don't know what is, Karen. Technology is great until it doesn't work, right?
I hope I'm not like your windshield wipers--unable to work when God needs me. Love the new blog design, especially the hearts!
I have the same problem... sometimes I like to work, and sometimes not.
