I’ll interrupt our discussion to share something that happened at work. Most of you know I work at Herald of Truth, a non-profit Christian media ministry. Yesterday we were having a sad discussion. Due to warehouse storage problems, we need to get rid of a large amount of material that we are no longer using. Much of it has a “dated” look to it that makes it hard to use. We were facing the sad fact that we were having a terribly hard time finding anywhere to send this material and might possibly have to dispose of it.

Today a couple walked in and identified themselves as members of the church in Australia. They said that they had received materials from Herald of Truth in the past and wondered if we might have, in their words, “some obsolete material” that we could give them. Wow! I was so happy that I hardly knew what to do.

I refuse to believe it a coincidence. Our God is alive and well.
