Everyone experiences coincidence somewhere in life. Two people say the same thing at the same time. You go to call someone and the phone rings, and it is the person you were going to call. You flip open the hymnal, and it opens right to the number you were looking for. On and on we could go until ...read more

Presumption says God’s timing or His knowledge is insufficient and I’ve got to do something to fix the problem. But there is another form of pride… DESPAIR. Despair says waiting on God is a fool’s wait. God will not fulfill His promises.
