God Appointment or just Coincidence?

Ever felt like you've been in the right place at exactly the right time?  I've certainly felt that way on many occasions.  It's never something you plan to happen, but out of the blue you meet a person or a situation arises that you know is just right for that point in time. 

Some people call these coincidences and sometimes they are, however, as a Christian who believes in God, I believe some meetings can be God inspired or God led.  You see, if we truly believe God knows everything about our lives, He is surely big enough to orchestrate and bring about situations He wants us to be part of, or bring us to people He wants to help and bless.

I believe this to be known as a 'God appointment' or 'divine appointment'.  There are many examples in the bible, one of them being the story of Esther.  Esther was a Jew and became the Queen of Persia.  Unknown to her at the time, one day her position of Queen would allow her to save the Jewish people from being annihilated!  These circumstances were not the result of chance but of God's wonderful plan to ensure the survival of His people.

With God in charge, we can take courage and trust Him to guide us through the circumstances we face in our lives.  Have assurance today, if we are willing to be led by the Holy Spirit, God can take us through different situations and bring certain people along our path to ensure His purposes are fulfilled. 

It's not until we sometimes look back over a period of time that we are able to see what God has done.  As we unite our lives with God's purposes, amazing things can truly happen!

Bible Verses:  Esther 4 v 14 - If you keep quiet at a time like this, God will deliver the Jews from some other source, but you and your relatives will die; what’s more, who can say but that God has brought you into the palace for just such a time as this?
