Good Morning, God
Lord, the other day, the headlines were about how a U.S. destroyer ship collided with an oil tanker ship on the open seas. Regardless of how it happened, God, one wonders about the odds of it happening. Obviously, two ships were trying to occupy the exact same spot on the ocean at the same time. But what are the odds of this?
God, who created math and probability, we notice it a lot when two vehicles meet in an accident when no other vehicles are around. We notice these conjunctions when we are jogging on a narrow road and we and two cars meet at the same time. What are the odds?
We also wonder, God about how our seemingly unanswerable dilemmas get answered at just the right time. We pray for healing and it happens. We pray for safety and we see the accident happen just behind us. We pray for a job and we are selected out of the huge number of applicants. We pray for long-life and we beat the odds of our family history.
God of heaven and earth and probability, may we always believe that things don’t just happen “by chance” but to fulfill your great purposes.
In Jesus’ name, Amen
