[Well, heck.. the odds against that must be ASTRONOMICAL! :-P]
Recently I have had loadsa 'God moments', most of which are hard to explain...
But one I will try to explain happened a few Sundays ago when we had a guest speaker.
He tells us to turn to Malachi 4:6 and I am like ohmy.gif because I had read that verse just the day before. So I am like okay, thats cool. Then he tells us to turn to another verse and it was one that I had read in the past week, so I'm like, wow. And this happens all meeting. I think every single verse he read out was one that I had been reading in the past week. So I was like WOW LORD!

(Sorry. This is how I am obliged to respond to this level of naivete).
@tehcrzy:
it's "ohmy.gif". It's the filename for the emoticon she used there.
My bad. I didn't notice that it copied like that, or I would've replaced it with something like [OMG emoticon].
:-P
Like that one time, when I was watching Buffy and there Spike said 'That diabolical torture device, the comfy chair.' And I was like WTF, is a God moment or what, because I saw that very Monty Python sketch he is citing there EARLIER THAT DAY!
God's even in unholy series like Buffy... baffling.
So I checked into this hotel and went to my room. I sat on the bed and looked at the bedside cabinet.
"I bet there's a bible in that cabinet," I said to myself.
I opened the top drawer - and there was a bible!
What are the odds of that/hey wow/goddidit/[various crazy emoticons]???
Even stranger - I don't believe in bible god!
So I was like WOW LORD!
= Please translate the above into sensible English. It is unintelligible as it stands.
= Please also note that the word 'Like' does not mean 'saying' or 'said'.
Your Pastor will not be pleased, moreover, unless you learn to speak in Elizabethan English.
I hardly ever watch television. My husband is a huge fan of My Name is Earl. Once, several months ago, I saw about 10 minutes of the show while I was doing something in the same room. Then, just recently, I walked in while he was watching the show. It was the exact same scene I'd seen several months ago. I've never seen any other part of the show in all the time he's been watching it; at least a couple of years.
I wonder what god is trying to tell me by making me see the same scene in a prison with Alyssa Milano (Alyssa Milano? Seriously?). The only scene I've ever seen, and I've seen it twice.
Wow, god. Just, wow.
So I'm like, on FSTDT, and like, reading what these people are saying, and like, this girl's like, saying like, a buncha times in one, like, sentence?
And I'm like, "I don't, like, like the whole 'like' thing. Yah know, it's supposed to, like, mean something, but I just totally don't get it! Like wow!"
Yes, and those verses were, "Judas went out and hung himself."
"Go Thou and do likewise."
once I was playing a song on a cd, turned off the cd when it was done, turned on the radio and the exact same song was just beginning...what was god telling me?????? Oh yeah! sometimes funny coincidences happen!
Also, it's not much of a coincidence if you're a nutter who reads the bible regularly, chances are if you talk to another bible nut then they've read similar passages. Especially since you guys seem to hand pick the same verses over and over again.
In case anyone is interested:
Malachi 4:6 is, in fact, the last verse of the Old Testament:
And he shall turn the heart of the fathers to the children, and the heart of the children to their fathers, lest I come and smite the earth with a curse.
It is refering to how God will send his messenger Elijah to come down and return the people to God.
Hey, do you know that the other week I bought the "Jazz Singer" soundtrack CD on special and just a few days later the "Jazz Singer" movie came on TV??? I mean, jeepers creepers, that movie is like 30 years old so it must have been a sign! God Lives!!
WOW LORD!
So you've read that thing? Then you should know better.
Now if you've been randomly cracking it and coming across this coincidence, maybe God's trying to tell you,,,,,What?
Once, as I started reading "Rosemary's Baby", on the first page where "Fur Elise" is playing,(Sorry, the u should have an umlaut), and on the radio, at the same time, was "Fur Elise"! Hmm.
The next morning, as I was dressing for work, I popped a tape into the player, not looking at the title. Guess what? "Fur Elise", again!
Spooking me out.
I'm a sign painter. The first job that morning was to paint a sign that said "FOR LEASE"!!!
OMFG and I had no FSM to turn to in those days! I had to just be content with being a regular old atheist. Well, it's a grand life if you can bear it.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
