Was it a God Wink?

2/17/2012

It was a rainy afternoon, and the lunch plans that my friend Terri and I made were a bit spoiled by the weather.

We were going to eat at an outside fast-food restaurant that had killer french fries.

But because of the rain, we settled for Taco Bell instead.


I was single back then, recovering from a heart-wrenching break up.

It was friends like Terri that helped me through that tough time.

We were just digging into our burritos when I looked up to see my old boyfriend in line. Yikes! How could he show up there at the same place at the same time as me? I had no place to hide. We were quickly spotted, and he came over to eat with us.

Was it coincidence that we ended up eating lunch at the same restaurant  or was it a “God wink”?  I’m thinking the latter because that man later became my husband.

God winks are often explained away as being coincidences. But, when we really look at a situation, we find that the chances of everything lining up so perfectly can be far from coincidental.

It’s the hand of God.

Hi Debra!

I just LOVE God winks and write about them in my posts quite often!!! What I have found is that God likes to wink often and sometimes with both eyes!! :D In the past 5 years I have given away over 400 of SQuire's books. They are such a WONDERFUL way of showing others how it is possible to have a Relationship with the Lord!!

I look forward to following you blog!!

Most Sincerely,
Jen

Jennifer, thanks so much for the comment! You know, the thing I love the most about God Winks is that they prove he cares about the things we care about. He's not an "only at church" kind of God, he's and "everywhere all at once" loving Father. Yeah, let's keep our eyes open! Glad to have you following the blog! Would you do me a favor, and give my blog's Facebook fan page a "like" at: http://www.facebook.com/MyChristianDevotionalBlog? Thanks!
