Coincidence?

So very often we meet with coincidences whereby people like the same thing and certain things happen in such a way we identify them as coincidence. Too often have we just cast it aside and consider them random coincidence that we do not see the hand of God in our midst.

Just 2 nights ago (the night Long went over to Woodbridge), I saw how evident God's grace is upon my bro's life. Sometimes I too wonder if he over 'Spiritualize' things, but guess it’s the reality of God so evident in his life that he can’t stop bringing God into the picture. I was just laying in bed half asleep half praying, trust me my mind was no where near my brother. I can’t be bothered with him especially when he can be really erratic sometimes. Going to Woodbridge late in the night without bringing his hand phone? You get my point, he almost belong there. =) Then all of a sudden I remembered him still outside, not sure if he got a key. Like I told you I can’t be bothered so I continue laying there until it kept coming back to me so I thought I might as well go out and keep my gates unlock for him. Little did I know that he did have the keys and here is where the ‘coincidence’ takes place.

Just as I was walking to open the door, I heard him turning the knob. The thing is he kept turning the knob but never pushing the door in. So I walked over to find the door locked so I help him unlock it. And guess what? Timing couldn’t have been more perfect. Normally our door would not be locked with just the gate locked but that night it was locked and I had no idea. He had the keys to the gate alright but he didn’t know that the door was locked. I came just in time to unlock it to let him in. well what can I say?

I wasn’t even the one receiving the grace but I saw it! Coincidence? Maybe you can reconsider a little?

Heavenly Father, pardon us if we ever brush your hand of Grace aside forgetting to give you due Glory for the things you’ve done in our lives. Open up the eyes of our heart to see ever so clearly You right in the midst of all that trouble.
