Your hope for the future is to look at others who have been put into your life by “Divine Coincidence”. Yes, “Divine Coincidence!”
Webster defines “coincidence” as occupying the same space or time; the occurrence of events that happens at the same time by accident but seem to have some connection”.
If you look back into your recent days, hours and minutes of your life, can you not see an outcome that affected your life? Was there not some thing that occurred in your life that you wondered about? Why did the outcome turn out that way? How did it affect your life?
In my own life, some extraordinary, unexplained things happened to me, which affected my future.
When I was six years old, my family, (there were seven of us) were coming home late at night from a family birthday party. We were traveling home on a graveled back road. The “Divine Coincidence” for me was that my Father was an excellent conscientious driver. Looking forward he saw an oncoming single headlight, my Dad automatically slowed down and veered to the right shoulder of this road. He could see that the oncoming vehicle was advancing at a high rate of speed!
Had he not done that, we would have all been in the center of a horrendous crash! The single headlight belonged to a motorcycle rider, traveling at high speed down the “center” of that graveled road. Instead of hitting us head on, he crashed into the left side of our auto. The rider was thrown off his vehicle, and was killed. His future hope was crushed, but ours was saved, because none of the seven family members received serious injuries! Praise that “Divine Coincidence” that prepared my Dad to do what he did! We could all have been killed that dark night!
You must “sweeten” your learning curve! You must look at things around you with new vision! Begin to see the positive things that have happened in your life and start to research “why and what” these activities have done for you! How far can you see?
Perhaps you received an email recently that gave you a message of inspiration. How did you react to that message? What else has happened recently in your life that you wondered why and how it occurred?
HOPE is your lifeline to your future! Without it, you will never get to see the good things that will be a part of the “Divine Coincidence” of your life! Hope is Faith and Faith is “Being sure of what we HOPE for and certain of what we do not see!” This is taken right from Hebrews in the Good Word, Chapter One, Verse 1.
HOPE is Your Future! Live your life with HOPE!
