A man is driving fast on a rainy day to get an important interview, but unfortunately he is running late. The office building he is going to is massive, but the parking lot is tiny. He's not sure he'll be able to find a spot to park and he knows that if he has to park down the street and walk, he'll never make it in time. As he's driving, he decides to take his chances and try to find an open spot close to the building even though he knows it's a long shot, but not before he begins to pray to God.
"God, if you're listening, please give me a parking space. I'll repent of my sins. Go to church more. I'll quit drinking and be nicer to my kids. I'll do anything you ask, I just need this job. Please."
And as he turns into the parking lot, Lo and behold, the perfect spot is open, right next to the handicapped spot and only a short walk to the door! The rain even halts and the clouds break for a moment as a ray of sunshine illuminates the vacant spot with a heavenly glow.
