First Spiritual Experience

When I was 12 I went with dad to cut grain down on the farm. And I was in this old Model T Ford truck and Dad was up on the columbine. I had to watch for when the Barley got up near to the top, it was kind of in a pyramid and you could see it, and I had to pull up with the truck underneath so he could empty it into the truck. While I was waiting I decided to try out the truck and move it and see how it went backwards and forwards. I backed up in the Hay field and it was wet and I got stuck. About that time I looked up and dad’s pyramid was full, it was time to empty and he’s looking at me to get up there so I was wondering what would I do now? I said a quick Prayer and received a prompting that I should put it into 2nd gear and so I did and I pulled it right out. I was so grateful for having the prompting and was thankful I was able to get myself unstuck.
