Serendipity

Serendipity - "the faculty or phenomenon of finding valuable or agreeable things not sought for...." How often does this happen? I think that a lot of things that we cheerish and consider priceless and valuable come from this phenomenon of serendipity. How many friendships? or jobs? or memories? Or a number of other things come from serendipity? But even though I feel that serendipity is a fun word.. and has a cool meaning, I believe that God plays a huge role in this phenomenon and he really gets no credit for it in the definition!! Sometimes we may not be looking for certain things at that particular moment in time.. but God knows what he is doing and is puting those things in our life for a reason.. so even though there is this serendipity I still think there is an intentionality on God's part...

So I must confess I really just looked up this word because I saw it several times and I just recently saw it on a friends blog..(he knows who I am talking about) and I thought it was interesting so I wrote about it?? So randomness.. but oh well gotta keep you guessing.....
