I'd definitely say that God was looking out for you.
I am of the opinion, however, that He expects us to act on our faith in Him. (I tell dh that I keep my gun handy everywhere its legal, practice, and depend on God to do what I can't.)
If money is an issue, take cxm up on his offer.
(That was very kind of you cxm, and that kindness will return to you.)
Really, you and your wife should both get CHLs. One in four women will be a victim at some point in her life. That's more likely than a house fire. She needs to be armed too.

Don't let money stop you from getting your CHL.
Not sure what part of DFW you are in, but I'm in DFW too and am a CHL instructor. I don't want anyone getting hurt because of the cost of the CHL course. Given your situation, I'll let you take my next class at my cost (range fee, and DPS document fee) which will help you considerably in affording the license (less than $20) which includes finger prints and photos.
Drop me a private email and we can set up the class.

The world needs more of this type of attitude.

I don't know you.....but you are sure are a class act. It's good to see folks willing to give their time to help another, it rare these days. I applaude you.

I never applied for a CHL because of the cost. I have a member of my family with a (very expensive) chronic illness and another that's about ready to start driving. I just never could justify spending the $250.00 or so for a CHL permit. There was always something more important to spend the money on.
No more excuses, we're going to find the money for the permit no matter what. I seem to have developed a new sense of priorities in the past week.
