Divine Meetings
I attended a men’s retreat at Redwood Christian Park in Boulder Creek, California this past weekend, with my home church Cornerstone Fellowship. I haven’t gone to many of these, but I always go with an open mind looking for God’s direction. Men are a strange bunch. Most are challenged with in comes to being in touch with their feminine side, so it’s no surprise that part of the focus of this retreat was relationships with women. This is a topic on which Ted Cunningham, their guest speaker, excels. Over the course of the three days, God put me in touch with three people. The first was a man in crisis; his wife had lost her job, and he was struggling to feed his wife 11 year old child. The other two I can’t really discuss for personal and confidentially reasons. The bottom line however is that God put me in touch with these special people for His purposes, and I will do my best to understand and follow His guidance, praying at each step of the way. What I find most interesting is how God orchestrates these meetings, these divine meetings, and the thing that I love the most is that you never know who is supposed to help who. Most of the time each of us benefits. What an awesome Lord we have.
