The short story I found for the post today, is about a man that received a call from an unexpected source. Could it be true? Well, we know that anything is possible with God, so I am certainly not going to dismiss it as fiction. It can be found with other stories at A Call From God - Christian Stories
One Saturday night, a pastor was working late and decided to call his wife before he left for home. It was about 10:00 PM, but his wife didn't answer the phone. The pastor let it ring many times. He thought it was odd that she didn't answer but decided to wrap up a few things and try again in a few minutes. When he tried again, she answered right away. He asked her why she hadn't answered before, and she said that it hadn't rung at their house. They brushed it off as a fluke and went on their merry ways.
The following Monday, the pastor received a call at the church office, which was the phone that he'd used that Saturday night. The man that he spoke with wanted to know why he'd called on Saturday night. The pastor couldn't figure out what the man was talking about.
Then the man said, "It rang and rang, but I didn't answer."
The pastor remembered the mishap and apologized for disturbing him, explaining that he'd intended to call his wife.
The man said, "That's okay. Let me tell you my story. You see, I was planning to commit suicide on Saturday night, but before I did, I prayed, 'God if you're there, and you don't want me to do this, give me a sign now.' At that point, my phone started to ring. I looked at the caller ID, and it said, 'Almighty God'. I was afraid to answer!"
The church that the pastor attends is called Almighty God Tabernacle.

Yes, God can do anything. Even use a phone call that was supposed to go to one person, go to interrupt another.
He has a purpose for each of us. And he won't let us go to our death until it is our time.
Life is hard for a lot of people. Especially in these times we now found ourselves living in.
And so trusting in the God that created us, is what we should be trying to do every minute of the day.
Trust in the Lord with all of your heart; and not unto your understanding. In all of your ways acknowledge Him and He will direct your paths
Proverbs 3:5-6
Easy, to do? Not always. But God promises to take care of us, every step of our journey to Him.
Thanks for coming by Friends: Blessed be the name of the Lord: Proverbs 113:2 and God bless you!
