Story
The Lap Towel was born this past April, 2023 out of the sincere desire to keep the brand new car clean to honor God with this blessing. See, in 2016 I survived a major 3 blockage heart attack . That day 2 blockages were fixed with a stent and angioplasty and I was told I would need a by-pass on the small vein the next day. Apparently 8.3 A1C is too high for a healthy mom. I respectfully declined the surgery. In the cicu, I felt convicted but I knew that I knew I was healed.
Fastforwards to late September of the pandemic year 2020 , the symptoms of angina peaked . I took the pups for our park walk that morning and the angina was so active I had to stop every 10-20 yards using my Goldens as the excuse for stopping I knew it was time to call the cardiologist when I got home. But God had other plans for my by-pass on that walk leading to the bridge that day. A 'swosh" rumble type of explosion happened in my chest and 2 hands then held my heart while the fingertips manipulated pressure with big marble bubbles moving between hands and heart. Five seconds and that blockage was gone.
Because of this healing without surgery, I have a close relationship with the The Trinity, (Father Son and Holy Spirit. So it was normal for me to inquire of the Father how to keep my new car clean if I eat this messy hoagie and not wait until I get home. . It was late and I was tired from painting at a rental property 40 minutes away. I opted to eat. The lettuce and peppers and onions slid between the seat and console and the oil and vinegar on the steering wheel added to mild disaster and I grew sad and continued my mull over the problem with God. About 3 miles from home in the dark, I looked down on my lap as I saw cuffs form on the right and left side of the towel curve up. I thought ...Brilliant! Holy Spirit!!. I went another 2 miles and looked down again and I saw an attached elastic band on top of towel and instantly I knew it was to wrap up towel and secure crumbs inside if you can't shake out. Super Brilliant. The next day I shopped for what material to use in different auto sections and hands down, super soft and absorbent microfiber which doesn't smear glass if you use for your glasses and sunglasses . I made multiple samples to find the right fit for the driver.
