His Mysterious Ways.........
I don't believe my "no such thing as coincidences" experiences haven't been occurring more these last couple of years ~ it's just that I've been noticing the incidents more because I've become more aware of them. In fact, the more recent "incident" happened this week that I just have to record.
Monday night I met a few women to car pool to a parent support group my husband and I have been attending for the last 3 years because of T-Man. Before I left to meet them (my middle son was to drop me off at my meeting place (KFC parking lot) to carpool) I just felt the need to find my gloves. Because I only have one pair of gloves but 3 coats I rotate, I had to search the other two coats to find them. Well, after we arrived and the meeting was over, I reached in my pockets and no gloves. Darn it. So I ask the driver if she should find them in her vehicle to let me know. Well ~ for "some reason" earlier I gave her my cell # before we went to the meeting. Wouldn't you known ~ when I got home after the meeting last night she called me. She said that as she backed out of her parking spot, she ran over something. My gloves! She said, that I could retrieve them from the Al Anon meeting she was going to the next day, if i wanted them then. Well ~ I believe it was God who was giving me very strong signs that I needed to be there. I've been wanting to go to this meeting for the longest time but had one reason or another why I couldn't go. So I went. I like this group a lot. I believe I found the right fit. I feel comfortable there. And then I see a person there that I had reached out to about a year ago but got the feeling she didn't approve of me and blamed my son for her son's problem. The feeling was validated by someone. So I see her and she comes up to me and hugs me. She even told me that she's been meaning to call me. She even asked me for my cell #. Here I thought she was judging me and here I was of her. God works in mysterious ways....
