Coincidences (facebook series)

Coincidences..things that happen, 'per chance'. Makes me think of a facebook quote I I like, "I, like God, do not play with dice or believe in chance." When things "happen to us" we either think it is luck or we say,"Why me?". In the case of luck, why not look around, pray (what a concept!)and perhaps, you might discover the event or experience is not luck but maybe, just maybe (hear my sarcasm?), God is trying to get your attention. In the case of bad fortune many people immediately default to the 'victim button' on their emotional computers (we are all hard wired with this to some extent so don't feel bad) and say "Why me?". In some situations you may find yourself saying, "Why me, AGAIN?" If you are having a repeat performance where you are the victim of someone else's choices and you are left again with an empty heart or an overcrowded mind remember, there may be nothing coincidental about your situation-everything usually happens for a reason.
