Whatever I may have thought or said about God during one of my hissy fits, I take it all back! Last week I was phoned by a company for whom I did some casual work during the holidays last winter. They have another exam marking project in June/July for six weeks and asked me if I'd be available to work. Coincidentally... it's the same six weeks I have off between semesters. I can work every day of those six weeks because all of my exams are scheduled prior to the official exam period.
I don't believe for a minute it's a coincidence... God is pretty good at stepping in at the last minute and taking care of things. I should know by now that he can be trusted, but I still seem to prefer the "panic and run around uselessly" option. How long before I'll learn, I wonder?

bit scary isn't it? that He's actually looking out that closely for you? i don't think we ever learn, but if we're lucky hopefully God is blessing us with friends who remind us of this.
if we're especially lucky, God gives us ears to hear their advice when it comes. i hope when someone tells me that, i'll listen!

Yep, it's a bit confronting to think, "oh right, God's actually paying attention. Close attention!" But, you know... in a good way...
