Reps: 8,253 (power: 19) | | | Yesterday I led a hike: I witnessed two small miracles:
A friend of mine forgot to buy his train ticket to the hike. When the ticket checkers came, I knew the scenario: 40 Euros fine. But no: my friend went straight to the checkers before they checked him, explained his problem, and they forgave him! Close call.
Then another woman called me up: She had missed the train and wanted to catch up with us. The problem was that the trains came only every half an hour! We couldn't afford to make 20 people wait for her. I told her to catch up with us farther away... a complicated thing. Then two people asked to use the loo before the hike started. So when we got off the train, I showed people the loo. Sudenly 10 people wanted to use it! And there was only one to go around. So half an hour later, the lady who missed her train was able to join us because we were still there waiting for every one to finish!
God worked things out for these people. I'm so thankfull. |

He was kept in a medically induced coma for nearly a week, and the doctors feared there would be a lot of brain damage. But he surprised everyone and is doing well. Originally, the doctors thought he'd still be in the hospital and just starting physical therapy by now; instead, he's going home today and will be doing occupational therapy on an outpatient basis. |

Reps: 8,253 (power: 19) | | | I just wanted to praise God that I found an internship quickly. I needed one badly, and have no contacts in my field, so I was so happy that I found one quite quickly (wrote a letter in the morning, got an interview in the evening. The internship is not what we call "most interesting" but I don't get bored, so I'm thankfull.
I had already spent a whole summer two years ago looking for a job in vain, and when ever I go to interviews I start to tremble and talk strangely. But here, I applied for the internship and I got the interview in the evening. When I got there, rather than being interviewed, I was shown what I would need to do. So I wasn't nervous and I wasn't trembling. And I got the intership!
So I'm so thankfull.
I have multiple bosses and I get along very well with some of them.

I have been helping a friend out for a few years now, emotionally. She's a few states away geograpshically, so it's been on the phone and on the internet and through regular mail that I've been helping her. I sent some money to her even to help her out in some dire times.
Well, now I'm finally getting the chance to help her not just a little, but to completely change her life. See, she's been in a precarious-to-bad situation with her family for quite some time, and they often threaten to kick her out on her own (and she only recently got a job to where she could at all afford it, and even now it'd be a stretch). But the house I own, which my dad lives in, is about to become unoccupied, as he is moving an hour away as he re-marries (mom died a year ago). This means that I can now rent it out.
Here's the greatest part. Another friend of mine needs a place to rent, so he'll actually be renting it, but he's already agreed she can be a roommate (and just in case anyone is thinking this could facilitate some horizontal mambo, it won't, just trust me). The best part is, he has no problem paying all of the rent (which about half what I'd charge a stranger that I wouldn't really trust with the house anyway) until she can get a job up here and be able to afford her half (which'd come to roughly $215 per month).
I can finally offer her what I've wanted to for years: a place to come and live should things go for the worst at her home, or even if she decides she just needs to move away anyway.
Praise God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit, the inseperable yet distinct persons of the Almighty Triune Godhead!
