Decisions are choices taking place, while others are God’s handiwork. Various souls are to meet long before they know it. God is smiling, as it was His intention for it to happen. As Ecclesiastes 3 tells us, there is a time for everything. We are to take a backseat, letting God work at His own pace. He has his reasons; we are to accept them. No, it is not easy. In time, we will understand.

OLD FRIENDS
OLD FRIENDS
While out doing some Christmas shopping today, I heard a familiar voice call out my name. I had not heard this voice in over 30 years, but I knew it immediately, belonging to a former high school friend. We started laughing and visiting as if we had seen one another last week. After an hour, we finally pulled away to start our shopping once again. Of course, there were a few more hugs good-bye and a few more of 'one more thing to say', before we both went on. This friend is quite spiritual, which made our conversation take on a different tone than the one we had in high school. We have led different lives since our high school graduation, yet the Spirit brought us together for a chance meeting. It was a good example that though we may think we are different from one another, we still share the same Spirit of God, giving us enlightenment in our lives, no matter where we are!
