Coincidences happen when God remains anonymous

This is a bit strange. I was listening to the tail-end of “The Infinite Mind” last week. The show was on coincidences. I’m a big fan of coincidences and how our brains perceive them. For example, when you pick up the phone to call your friend and just before you do, the phone rings, and its her calling you. Spooky, right? This sticks in your brain as a strange coincidence. But what didn’t stick in your brain is the hundreds of times you reached for the phone and this didn’t happen. That’s how our brain works. It remembers the “hits” and forgives the “misses”. That’s how John Edward works his magic, too.

So it’s funny listening to this, because he’s describing a radio show you might hear and how it might trigger a memory from a few days earlier or it might hit you later. And I was thinking how funny this is that I’ve heard this before (Coincidence!) because, as I said, I’m a fan of coincidences. I tried to remember to go listen to the whole show when it’s online here.

And then, two days later: blam! This sign hits me on the side of the road. Coincidence? Or is it a sign from God?

Ehh… maybe the preacher was listening to the show, too.
