Do you know why God involves Himself in our lives?

Coincidence? No, Godincidence. In the words of John Phelps, everything in life is by divine appointment. Before there was anything, God the Almighty knew your life story. He knew youd be here on this day in this place. He gave me this message through the Holy Spirit who dwells in me, in this place, in your heart! This is and was a divine appointment. You realize, dont you, that among all the religions, faiths, and testimonies throughout history, Christianity is the only one where God reaches out to man? All the others are dependent upon mans trying to please their gods. Some even have to get his attention. They ring bells; they clang gongs; they hang paper messages; they chant; they need priests. Our Lord answers a whispered prayer, and is closer to us even than breath. Imagine. Check out this book filled with Godincidences of New York City life, suspense, terrorism, romance, courting, and pastoral ministry. Grapple with eternal questions prompted by the books story.
Ditzy Blonde Faucet, it´s a God Thing is Linda Larson Schlitz´s humourous approach to living with having Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder and other challenges and how she has let God use those very things to make her a vessel of hope and change in her community and the world around her. Here is an excerpt from the book... It is my intention to help all ADD/ADHD people and others who may have any kind of illness as well as all those who struggle to love them. I want them to see that despite the frustrations that we feel and that we cause, it is still "A God thing "and we have to look for the good in it all because Romans 8:28 promises that God works all things together for the good for those that love Him and are called according to His purposes" And my purpose is to share ME with the world and be OK with the response I get, or don't get. I will do my best to make some semblance of order to this book but since I am on an extreme time crunch to get it done I expect it may seem a little disjointed .perhaps a lot disjointed maybe completely disjointed to some of you, but hopefully if that is the case you will use the opportunity to help you be more understanding and compassionate toward those who are different and have struggles that they need help with. I am not writing this for anyone in particular. I am writing this because somebody, maybe only one person in the universe, needs to know they are not alone and God loves them and can and will use them just the way they are to do great things for Him.
An outcast magician must risk his body and mind to save the world from horrifying demons in this “kick-in-the-nuts, edgy, and dark” epic fantasy adventure (New York Journal of Books) Tyrant magus Edrin Walker destroyed the monster sent by the Skallgrim, but not before it laid waste to Setharis, and infested their magical elite with mind-controlling parasites. Edrin’s own Gift to seize the minds of others was cracked by the strain of battle, and he barely survives the interrogation of a captured magus. There’s no time for recovery though: a Skallgrim army is marching on the mountain passes of the Clanhold. Edrin and a coterie of villains race to stop them, but the mountains are filled with gods, daemons, magic, and his hideous past. Walker must stop at nothing to win, even if that means losing his mind. Or worse.
