There Are NO Such Things As Coincidences.. It was Divine Intervention!

Good Evening All,

Reading a story on the front page of yesterday’s Sunday Eagle Tribune (Lawrence) brought tears to my eyes. First of all, it was a good news story which isn’t always the norm in newspapers, especially worthy of front page coverage. To me, this is a story of angelic intervention…

It was the story about a junior high football coach who had a very serious heart attack right on the field during a game. The statistics, according to the paper, indicated that this type of heart attack is almost always fatal 95% of the time. While there is a town rule that an EMT must be present at all football games, very rarely are there parents or patrons with such extensive medical training at a game at any one time. But this day was different…

My impression of what happened is that many angels were at work on that Sunday afternoon to help this coach as he collapsed…

One parent, who happened to be a surgeon “arrived early” for his son’s game which was to start after the game that was already in progress. Another parent with over a decades worth of emergency room experience also “arrived early” awaiting the next game and was sitting in the bleachers with eyes on the field. The opposing team playing at this football game had a parent with over a decade of nursing experience; plus having the EMT present at the field made a total of four medical professionals that witnessed something that needed their attention. Two out of the four can’t explain what told them to be at that field early that given day.

It was a good opportunity for me to ask the angels about what happened…

Cheryl, what we want you to tell people is here is a story about the kind of work God’s angels perform. There is nothing coincidental or lucky about it. Miracles do happen every day and angels intervene very often on people’s behalf. This story was shared as a reminder to pay attention even to the small miracles that happen to all people, so when greater things happen, be reassured that angels will always be by your side. This coach clearly has more coaching to do both on and off the field because of his life being saved.

I hope you enjoyed this story as much as I did. Feel free to google it for more details.
