Is meeting a friend a chance encounter or a God ordained appointment?

 

Can recall your very first conversation with many of your friends?

 

I posted a blog on Thursday about my friend Kelli who had stopped by for a visit.  Our friendship has spanned more than twenty years.  Back then, I was the chair person of a "search committee" that was seeking a music minister for our church.  We had narrowed down the resumes to the ones that we thought were good candidates for the position.  When we came across the resume for Kelli's husband Doug, the committee agreed that he might be a good candidate.  Later that day I called their home and Kelli answered the phone.  You might say, "the rest was history."  The story of how we became across the street neighbors will be revealed in another blog.

Sybil - When I think of the people in my life I often wonder if it were destined to be that way. Looking forward to the next post.

It is amazing how some people come into our lives. My best friend in Richmond is because the new home sales rep told me I wold probably get along with the people moving in down the street. I went up, knocked on the door, and she let me in. We became FAST friends. The strange thing is, she tells me, is she is NOT the type to make friends like that and that it was meant to be. I can tell you from being her friend for years now, she really isn't the type to just warm up to someone so fast.

Hi Tom,  I am a firm believer that all things are ordained by God, thanks for your comments.

Shannon, I guess your friendship was meant to be also.

If you ask The Lord to "order you day" each morning, you must believe that the friends that are introduced into your life... along with problem people also... are put there for a reason and God may be the only One that knows why.
