(5) Another's blessings bless us too

This experience is not directly our but it has details impact our story. I have asked Becky and gotten permission to share. I know it is not a coincident and am humbled that the smallest details are as much a witness of God's hand as are the big miracles. The day I contacted Becky, or the day before (time between there and here is confusing to me) she had a miraculous experience. Her daughter informed them that she would be getting married in August. The family already had plans to come back in September and had already purchased airline tickets. Becky called to try to change their tickets for August. After spending all day on the phone with the airline the best they could do was $9,000 to change the date of travel for the 5 tickets they had already purchased. This wasn't going to work she only had $1,800 she could spend. At the end of the day they gathered and prayed again, even thought they had been praying all day. Afterward her children asked what to do and she told them to pack their bags. She said she still didn't see how it could happen but trusted that it could with God's help. The nest morning she was making breakfast and the prompting come to call the airline again. Instead of waiting she stopped what she was doing and called. The agent answered and asked how he could help her. She said, "I told him I would need a miracle." She then told him the whole story: the wedding, the efforts the previous day, and the thought to call again. A short time later the 5 tickets were changed for only $800 total. Maybe your thinking, "Great story but what does it have to do with your family?" I guess I didn't mention that they were coming back to Utah 1 week later. She was going to check things out for us and she and her husband are going to take time while they are here to meet with us. The event that are happening for us with the timing to prepare are a blessing -they are coming in August and not September when our timeline would be shorter or pushed back.
Not only is He directing our path but His timing is not by accident.
