Figuring Out Providence

They haven't been far. God just doesn't operate on our time table. And some of His operations don't add up on our computers. The little boy who didn't understand why God put so many vitamins in spinach and didn't put more of them in ice cream had a pretty good idea that it just doesn't work out like you'd think.
