Here’s yet another story of how much the Lord loves us, and what crazy lengths He goes to show us:
My wife is in Kenya right now serving alongside the Mendonsas at Naomi’s Village (orphanage) and before she left, she needed to raise partial support for her trip. The Lord faithfully provided the majority of the funds needed, but when she left she was $200 short. We had already contributed a rather large contribution to this trip, and so the remaining $200 had to come from our savings and to be honest this stretched us a bit.
This week, as I was checking the mail, I came across a rather unusual piece of mail. The return address just said “Lozano v. Twentieth Century Fox.” Thinking that this was most likely junk mail, I set it aside to throw it away later. Curiosity got the best of me and so I ended up opening it. Evidently there was a lawsuit filed against Twentieth Century Fox about unwanted advertising, and somehow my wife was unknowingly a part of this. Apparently in Sept 2005, a lot of people (my wife included) received a text message advertising the movie release “Robots” and so everyone that got this received is now receiving a settlement. How much was this settlement? Any guesses? That’s right. $200.
A random text from 6 years ago started a chain reaction of lawsuits and court hearings. How sweet is the Lord that of all the time between now and then, this is the time He chose to have these checks sent out? You can’t make this stuff up people…
