I do believe that God did bless me and mine on this trip. I keep thinking, "What if the transmission had quit going into 3rd gear just one day earlier? I would have had to drive home in 2nd gear at 30 mph, probably on the shoulders when I could find them, which would have taken another day at least, if the transmission would have lasted in 2nd gear that long." I had a very significant religious event that I was committed to the day after I got home. I would have missed that. I believe God's blessings may well have come in part because of my "secondary agenda" that I had on the trip related to the sign on the side of my car that no one has asked about.
