I had the opportunity this evening to visit some dear friends and fellow Christians at the hospital. In the waiting room were several friends, all of whom we knew, except for one couple. As the time wore on, I wanted to ask straight out, "Who are you?", but everyone else knew them, so I thought it best to pretend I did, too. Then a name came out-a familiar name . . . Zimmer. I then asked, "Are you THE Zimmer from Marysville?" "Yes, and this is my wife. You see me often at your church because I am a habitue there, but I do pastor a church in Marysville, and the kids you've been hearing us talk about are our's, and the kids from church wev'e been talking about are kids in One28 ministries. Why do you ask?" "Well, sir, although you do not know who I am, I am a virtual member of your church. You see, I know many of your congregants by name, and pray for them, and for your church as a whole, regularly." The man I've heard so much about was there in the waiting room with me!! What a small world, and a great God we have. The timing of that whole evening (a long chain of events), was very provdential and divinely appointed. That was an amazing and encouraging thing to me . . . to know so well people I have never met, and to have an instant and intimate bond in Christ.
