But the guy had introduced me to a woman heading a huge ministry before all that happened. She became a mentor and friend and it was through her that someone donated $5000 to put my Deception book into a small pocket size edition to give free to women in prison and living on the streets. I probably would never had met that women if it hadn't been for him. All things really do work together for our good. Have an amazing weekend Terri. You inspire big time!!!!

God's plans are higher and lovelier than our fondest dreams. <br /><br />When I prayed that God would send a new acquaintance a wife, I had no idea it would end up being me! That was over 40 years ago, and we are still married.

There have been so many instances. I thin...Oh yeah. There have been so many instances. I think one of my favorites was when, by divine blessing, we were able to purchase a van after our car died. We were in NYC and you couldn't just get a used car there. It either came from a chop shop, or the people were trying to charge you 23% interest (while calling it 7%). We found the van on ebay, and you know how ebay bids always shoot up last minute? It didn't. We got the vehicle for $4,000 less than what they were trying to sell it on the lot. Now the clincher, it was in Arizona. Surprise, surprise, my father in law had a golf trip scheduled for the very next weekend for the SAME city. (We'd had no idea.) He was able to pick up the van and drive it out to us. When we sat the car next to the van, it looked like the car had been morphed into a larger vehicle. (Same paint and gold stripe.) Coincidence? I think not.<br /><br />Condolences on your father-in-law.

My husband's tumor diagnosis came just a couple months before he was set to be laid off (which would have caused him to lose his health insurance), trying for years to get pregnant and having it happen just a few months after we both got saved.

Yes, I've had the coincidences in my life. I even think of my father's death. I was teaching and he had been ill. He thought I was on Spring Break and was taken to the hospital. I was not on break until the next week. I left school and drove across the state to be with him anyway on a Thursday. He died on Monday. I do think he held on until he knew my job would not be affected by his death. I wonder if you FIL sensed you were coming out.<br /><br />I wish I could have met you.
