COINCIDENCE? What is coincidence? Is it Gods timing? Is it just random happenings with no Divine interception? Do we trust God, or do we leave things to happenstance? My journey over the past 2 years has been one where I constantly hear God telling me to TRUST HIM. It never comes when I’m feeling strong and in control, but when I’m left with nothing, and just wondering how to go on. . . . and that has happened several times over the past year. Most recently it happened again with a sudden and unannounced end to my job, which I was told was secure (as was the last one and the one before….) When you are suddenly without resources to live, it leaves you perplexed, scared, vulnerable, unsure, dependent on “something”, and . . . . oh, did I mention, SCARED? At these times, especially when you live alone, with no one to take up the slack, it is very hard to pray, to trust in God, to rely on God, when things are just out of your control. But that’s what He requested. Hmmmm….. And knowing what He promised us in His Word, I turned to Him and just said, ‘what now, God?’ All He kept saying, over and over, was “trust Me”. So, I had to. When I finally gave it all to Him, and left it with Him, and stopped worrying about it, things started to happen. - - MANNA - - Unexpected, unforeseen “manna” fell, and resources came from completely unexpected and unrequested sources. I was humbled, and buoyed. I was kept afloat. I felt His Hand and His arms around me. I felt a Peace that surpasses all understanding. And He kept saying, “trust Me”. So, the store was gracious to give me extra hours, not enough to sustain me, but enough to keep me going for now - - and on Monday, after 3 hrs of work, I left the store, got in the car, and the phone rang. That timing still baffles me. It was my staffing company with a job. Not just a job at a lower wage than before, but a job with a much higher wage than ever before! Coincidence? The really neat side story of all of this, is that I have a recording session on a song that God gave me - - btw, I’m NOT a composer!! (but thats a whole other story) - - and this session is this Thursday. The new job was gracious enough to give me these two days to complete this recording, and have me start on Friday. Otherwise I would be working today. Again, I say, Coincidence? I don’t think so. . . I am truly blessed by the Hand of God. And, I am praising my heart out!!!!!
