Wanna share this with ya ...



There Are No Coincidences

If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness.

1 John 1:9 NIV


For three days a fierce winter storm had traveled 1,500 miles across the North Pacific from Alaska, packing gale-force winds and torrential rains. In the Sierra Nevadas to the east, the snow was piling up and would offer great skiing once the storm had passed.

In the foothills of the Sierras in the town of Grass Valley, California, the streets were flooded, and in some parts of town, the power was off where trees had blown down. At the small church, the heavy rain and high winds beat against the windows with a violence that Father O'Malley had never before heard.

In his tiny bedroom, O'Malley was laboriously writing Sunday's sermon by candlelight. Out of the darkness, the phone in his office rang, shattering his concentration. He picked up the candle, and with his hand cupped in front of it, ambled down the hall in a sphere of dim flickering light.

As he picked up the phone, a voice quickly asked, Is this Father O'Malley?

Forgiveness and Love = Jesus
Do you know my Jesus? Do you know my friend? Have you heard He loves you? If not, I'd like to introduce you.

GOD is not slack concerning HIS priomise as some count slackness, but longsufferring. HIS is the perfect timing and no one has the knowledge or providence like HIM. no other god could ordain such events as to bring healing and salvation in such a situation

That's got me thinking. This all has. Tried to post earlier. Just to many words to type out.
*angel7* Sorrow looks back, Worry looks around, But faith looks up! Live simply, love generously, care deeply, speak kindly and trust in our Creator who loves us.

Thank you for reminding me there are no conincidences. That God is in control, and he is a merciful forgiving God. *help*
