God is alive and well. He never misses a trick. I have added a few of my many moments of truth. And the truth is I would have to be blind, deaf and dumb to not see His presents in my every day life. My life has been the advanced test so anyone just taking the learners test, don't worry if you get something wrong on your test. You get to repeat the test. Moses took 40 years and traveled in a desert that was a total of a few miles but he kept traveling in circles. That reminds me of some people I know.

I was still going to college, children at home and I took a third shift job to earn money. It was late night, the bars had closed, I had just made a full pot of coffee when in came a young handsome black gentleman. With a great smile, he got a cup of coffee, looked at his watch and said he was early. He asked if I minded to have a little company before he moved on, I answered that I was proud to have someone to talk with while enjoying a cup of coffee. We stood there across the counter from each other talking when a car pulled up. The two men in a blue car sat there for a long time, the handsome gentleman suggested that he was going to have another cup and stay until they moved on. I was happy to have him stay but was afraid for both of us. 30 minutes past, they left. I got a pretty good look at them before they left sitting there just outside the front window. The handsome gentleman left soon after, saying that I should be alright now. Minutes passed by when a police car pulled in, the officer jumped out and told me that the clerk down the street had been shot to death by two men. They had a partial description. Before he said a word, I said two men; one white, one black in a blue car and the license plate number. He looked at me in disbelief. I was standing with this handsome gentleman when they pulled up. I looked to point out the handsome gentleman I knew was walking down the street but he was gone.

Sitting on my bed, one day right after my divorce, it was an unusually bad day, I needed just a few minutes to regain my thoughts, I asked, are you there Lord. Please let me know that you are there. Without hesitation, I got a poke in my shoulder and it hurt! Alot! There was no one there but the head of the bed and the wall behind it but sure enough, I got a poke. I looked for a bruise, it was that hard of a poke. But as quickly as that answer came, I forgot. Moving on to the days business without so much of a thank you very
