I have missed you and hope you had a wonderful birthday. You know, I almost didn't go tonight. I was tired after work, it is really cold out, and I would have prefered to stay cozy.

But I also felt a need to go to church and my son is really great about inviting me to share these things in his recovery, so I went.
And you're right - it wasn't any coincidence. Sometimes God has to lift me out of my chair and put me in the car, but lead me He does. And I am so grateful for the "knowing" that everything is okay.

In one of my favourite books, "A Prayer For Owen Meany" the main character is funny little Owen who has an unusual connection to God, and when questioned about his unshakable faith he replied " I don't know how I know, I just KNOW." I feel like Owen tonight.
