God Arranged Their Seating
As Pastor John Aker boarded a plane in Newark, he discovered that he had been assigned a seat next to a man named Richard. Once airborne, the two began talking. Richard had come from the Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center. His condition: skin cancer. Doctors gave him ten months at best. He was going home to Nebraska. “May I tell you about something that changed my life?” asked John. Richard nodded. John explained the way of salvation, and Richard was interested. Right there, 20,000 feet over Chicago, he gave his heart to Christ.
Months later, John again boarded a plane at Newark. This time he sat next to an elderly woman headed for Beatrice, Nebraska. Amazingly, this was Richard’s mother. She told him her son was growing in the Lord. “I’m so encouraged,” said Richard’s mother. John replied, “I’m inspired that Richard has followed through and that God arranged for us to sit together.” The woman replied, “Just before you came on the plane a woman asked me to change seats with her.”
God does direct our steps! If we are yielded to Him, He will use us. Let’s trust God to “arrange the seating” in our lives. —Dennis DeHaan
