Are these occurrences “an answer to a prayer” or simply “coincidence?” It matters little, for Coincidence is just God working anonymously. Perhaps the most difficult part of this is why sometimes it happens and other times not. Those times when the person remained an enigma or that which we deemed needed did not appear, a prayer request seemingly ignored. In looking back on my life, inventorying the past with raised consciousness, many of the things I thought I needed in the moment turned out to be the last thing I needed, had I received them my spiritual development would have been delayed or even derailed. As our consciousness rises our spiritual vision corrects and clears, however even with corrected vision, some questions are beyond our sight, remaining unfathomable at this time. Why does one child miraculously recover from an illness and another succumb? Or someone who worked hard all their lives, played by all of society’s rules who then find all they worked for gone through no fault of their own? It is beyond my vision for some questions can only be addressed directly by God, the answers finally coming after this flesh fails and we are launched into the infinite.
In Faith and Truth God only brings good, He does not, cannot bring suffering or strife. Today my spiritual vision is longer and clearer than yesterday, if you prayed and meditated today so is yours. We see the world through a new pair of glasses, our understanding broadened, our empathy revealed, the path illuminated. Even so I still have no good answers in the moment for those experiencing seemingly inexplicable calamity, only a shoulder, a quiet ear and a silent prayer. Perhaps that is the answer after all.
