Not coincidental

This is too awesome....had to share with you all. The other night Bob was doing a devotion with the kids. The devotion was on Genesis 7 and how Noah obeyed God's directions to build the ark. Noah had FAITH that God had big plans for him and his family. Anyway, Stephen asks. "How long did it take Noah to build the ark?". Well, Bob and I looked at each other and neither one of us knew. So, Bob told him he would find out and let him know. Well, the next morning we get up and Bob is already gone to work. However, he left us a note that said, "It took Noah 120 yrs to build the ark." Stephen is wondering how Bob found out and I told him he probably looked it up in his Bible this morning during his quiet time. Nothing else was said about it. Well, this morning I am reading the chapter for lifegroup and there it is...the second page in the chapter...bottom of page 114...."Noah spent 120 yrs building an ark and warning others of the impending judgment". I talked to Bob and he was waiting for me to read the chapter before he said anything. You cannot tell me that this is coincidental. This is God telling us...."I HAVE YOUR BACK". Yes, Bob and I are not the most educated when it comes to the Bible...where to find certain things...having the scriptures memorized...etc. However,God is telling us...don't worry. Keep teaching your kids about Me and I will help you. How Awesome is this. I love it. What a confidence booster.
