Recently I won an i-pad at an annual dinner. It happened like this. When the first prize number was called, no one came forward to claim the i-pad. So the committee decided to call another number, and my number was called. Later there were people who felt that this prize should belong to the original 'winner', that though he/she was not around to claim it, it should belong the him/her.
A week later I was buying some products from a health-products company and was given 3 lucky draw tickets. The first prize was also an i-pad. The counter girl however stressed that I have to be at the store when the draw was taking place. If not, even if my number should win the first prize, it will be forfeited as I was not there to claim it.
This makes me think. As the original winner was at the dinner that night, why didn't he claim the i-pad. He must have either gone home or gone out for a while (to the toilet perhaps or make a phone call). To me, this is not a co-incident. I think God wants to surprise me with a present. Because He loves me. Amen

Yes, there is no such thing as "by chance" in our Christian life. When we committed our life to God, everything that concern us concern Him!
