Providence

Don and Linda are friends from up North. They own a timeshare in Central Florida for New Year’s week.  But in late fall, they decided not to go. And they offered the week to Dave and me – as a gift.

And what a gift!  Our time in their timeshare was an oasis, away from the distractions and stresses of life and work.  Oh, my…. we were refreshed. That week away was exactly what we needed.  And a great way to end the old year and begin the new. 

The really amazing part of the story….  Don had a heart attack the very day that he and Linda would have been traveling, had they gone to their timeshare week.  Rather than being on a plane, he was near medical care. Praise the Lord! Don is OK, and is recovering.

And we are in absolute wonder at God’s providence.

But the story doesn’t stop….  Dave told another friend, and apparently he really needed to hear about God who cares and God who controls – because the story spoke to his heart.  

As it continues to speak to ours!
