She challenges her readers to look at the "interruptions" in life as Divine Interventions. I'm trying! Love to hear all your stories. When our second child was two he fell off a slide and ended up with a skull fracture. Shortly after he got out of the hospital he began wetting the bed and complaining of his legs falling asleep. Those problems led us to a wonderful chiropractor who corrected the problem. A few years after that my hubby got laid off. That lean time gave him a chance to rethink his career path. Guess what he chose? Long story short, my husband and the little boy who fell off the slide are now both doctors of chiropractic!! Divine intervention... God is so good--even when we can't see it.Becky Melbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17545840824884464622noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8931786447770768460.post-12487438807553883382010-10-19T15:12:02.502-07:002010-10-19T15:12:02.502-07:00Great interview.

I had given up the idea when my parents stepped in an helped my get a loan for my condo. I repaid them but without their aid I would not have made it. My family has been my strength in good and bad times.<br /><br />misskallie2000 at yahoo dot commisskallie2000https://www.blogger.com/profile/09235631978482541630noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8931786447770768460.post-76324481512854968912010-10-19T14:38:05.495-07:002010-10-19T14:38:05.495-07:00Good good interview.

That happened to me in college--I wanted to become a veterinarian but had to change majors. I ended up changing my career path to teaching, and God's used me in ways I've never imagined. <br />cynthiakchow (at) earthlink (dot) netcynthiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03195497170406388348noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8931786447770768460.post-64782324554142354232010-10-16T08:04:43.906-07:002010-10-16T08:04:43.906-07:00Yes, I have experienced a tremendous disappointmen...Yes, I have experienced a tremendous disappointment that turned out to be such a amazing blessing to us. We lived in Florida for 12 years and considered that home. Had a strong church family there. We moved to Arizona to help out my parents. After they were both gone, we eventually moved back to Florida to the area that we were from. Our house here hadn't sold and G-d specifically told me when we were living there that we needed to move back here. We took our house off the market here and did move back and it has been the best thing that we could have done. Have been blessed with a new wonderful church family here.

I've read several Heartsongs by our buddy and love how she weaves each intricate thread together to make a wonderful story. <br /><br />And writing Door County Christmas with these 3 ladies was: a HOOT!
