This one happened yesterday.
I woke up yesterday morning around 3:30 coughing. The smoke was so thick from our local forest fires that my sinus were plugged and my throat was burning from the smoke. I asked God to please make my throat stop burning and open up my sinuses. Then I realized that was a really selfish prayer as there are a lot of other people in this area with breathing problems. I have a brother-in-law who has lung cancer from getting vaccinated. The doctors have told him the tops of his lungs look like popcorn. He lives about 40 miles from us so I asked God to lift the smoke there too and said it would be a really good thing if we would get some rain. Within a few minutes I could smell fresh air and the smoke lifted all day long. We hadn't been able to see the sky for days. By mid afternoon I could see the sky. The greatest thing about about all this is we didn't even have a breeze. The air was still.
When my wife got home from work I asked her if she had talked to her brother and she said yes. I then asked her how he was doing with his breathing. She said he was doing good. Then I asked her about the wind down there and she said there wasn't any.
Oh, one more thing. I asked God for s good soaking rain to put out our local fires and it;s been raining since around 4 this morning. A good soaking rain. Not hard but steady.. Just what I asked for.
God is soooo god, His love for us is beyond our wildest imagination..
