You think that your running low or you get a bill in the mail and then somehow you come across extra money. I find that happens to me at times.Emileenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-149224757183756660.post-49224488865172650162009-12-04T18:58:07.313-08:002009-12-04T18:58:07.313-08:00Some real life coincidences can be amazing!

(Obviously, these things are not just happening for no reason. That they happen at all... implies that nothing else that happens is accidental either.

I think of these events like little gifts from above. <br /><br />A friend of mine calls it synchronicity. I don't know what to call it, but I really like the "Law of Stackable Hamsters."

If we listen, if we participate we will know when we are to pray or go to the aid of someone who needs us.T.

My reading your post probably made my coincidental circumstance more noticed by me and helped add to my recounting ot the story.<br /><br />Stephen -- I agree with what you say. Many times coincidence is barely noticed by many of us. And when some of us do notice something that seems truly to be extraordinary we wouldn't want to attach the source to a greater force beyond ourselves.<br />Oh, thanks for jarring my memory about that million that I had forgotten about -- what a coincidence that you should mention it now when I need it the most --- I wish.<br />LeeArlee Birdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11663942782929929334noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-149224757183756660.post-23068345153826656512009-12-04T09:23:15.393-08:002009-12-04T09:23:15.393-08:00How wonderful!

There are a few in my life who I bump into a few times every year without fail, and others who live in the same town that I never ever see. I'm not sure why, except that we travel similar paths!Joannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03972054718663959694noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-149224757183756660.post-53238832196372707382009-12-04T09:05:18.613-08:002009-12-04T09:05:18.613-08:00All minds are connected via the One Eternal Mind w...All minds are connected via the One Eternal Mind which created us all. Stories like this don't surprise me in the least. What surprises me is that we don't hear about them happening more often. But I think we can attribute that to general lack of awareness about our circumstances. After all, if a person got knocked on the head, he might forget that he has a million dollars in the bank and thus walk the streets begging for spare change.<br /><br />~ Stephen<br /><"As a dog returns to his own vomit, <br />so a fool repeats his folly." <br />~ Proverbs 26:11>Stephen T.

Patricia Stoltey left a comment on my coincidence post that said,“…But it's true that coincidence is easier to accept in real life than it is in fiction. Isn't that odd?” I think she made a really good point.Jane Kennedy Suttonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12519340747761460017noreply@blogger.com
