150 ~ God's Surprise

By Kay Heitsch

As November gets closer, I can't help but think about Todd's birthday.

Today, I was thinking about all the times God has provided what I needed. Some things have been financial, some others helpful, and some things have happened to show His love.

Todd's birthday is not just any other day. So when I walked down to the mailbox years ago, I was in for a God surprise. In the box was a personal letter from Dr. Peale's office. I couldn't wait to open it!

As I began reading, I was overwhelmed! Dr. Peale wanted to put the letter I had written him as the introduction to his new hardback book, Have A Great Day-Every Day! This was the same paperback book Todd read, and I gave away to friends and family in his memory.

After all these years, I still hold this precious memory close to my heart. What are the odds of this request letter arriving on Todd's birthday?

Who can ever doubt God's personal love for each one of us?

Remember how I led you on this long journey. Deuteronomy 8:2
