I hope that I am helpful to people when they need it.

I also believe that God puts people in our lives for a reason.

I love reading His Mysterious Ways. It is always a positive part of my day.

I am always encouraged and strengthened by seeing how God is doing things still.

Very thought provoking!

This looks very inspirational. Our understanding is so limited, isn't it? wgbc1446[at]yahoo[dot]com

thank you for all the encouragement--keep up the good work!

His Mysterious Ways never ceases to amaze me. We too often fail to see God at work in our lives - it's not coincidences by GOD-incedences that we often experience. Don't ever stop sharing His Mysterious Ways with us.

His Mysterious Ways is my favorite part of my monthly Guideposts-I usually end up in tears, praising and honoring my God!

Thanks for all the inspirational stories you share with us. They bring me hope and encouragement daily.
Dorothy
