I called Doc today to set up an appointment and his voicemail said he'd be out of the office from the 10th to the 18th. So if I'd called on the 4th like I'd planned, he wouldn't have been able to see me until now anyway.
Hang on a sec.....
I went into my room just now because I heard a kind of metallic 'twang...twang' and found my cat Dizzy up on top of the cage I keep my pet mice in. The first words out of my mouth were a drawn out OMG! in complete disbelief because, if you recall, Dizzy is the one who has a birth defect that inhibits the signals from his brain to always get to the correct muscles, so he walks like he's drunk. In addition to this, the cage isn't directly accessible to any stable surface. He had to climb over my clock radio and under my bedside lamp, and did this without knocking anything over. When I caught him in the act he tried to get away. I grabbed him and put him back on the cage and gave him a stern talking to, as well as a swat on the behind. That doesn't mean he won't do it again though.
Now, where was I? Ah yes, coincidences that aren't. In Acts 1:7 it says, “It is not for you to know times or seasons that the Father has fixed by his own authority." Basically, the good things God means for you (providential coincidence) will happen when they happen. It's not for you to know until they do. Sometimes they may look like totally random events that no one could've seen coming (no human anyway), but God knows. Besides, I've found that we humans don't often predict good things. Rather they're often the bilious and sour stormings of a rampant cynic and doomsayer.

A doctor? You sick physically, mentally what? You don't say.
And I don't know what bilious means, but there are good people out there too trying to make things better. Don't be so negative.
