A Calling

"Phone ringing!"flashed on the screen while I was reading my email this morning. I don't get many live calls in Tanzania, and I was excited to see my daughter was on the line.

"Mom, I just told the kids we are going to The Nutcracker tomorrow, and Zoe's hysterical. She says we can't go without Nana! It's way past her bedtime, and I can't get her to settle down. Would you talk to her?"

When I heard Zoe's sobs on the phone, I assured her I wanted her to enjoy the ballet and that we would go to a dance performance together when I got home. The sobs settled down to sniffles, and Zoe was sent to bed.

I thought about the wonder of technology which allowed me to dry one grandchild's tears half a world away even as I prepared to lead a staff meeting to benefit 34 other grandchildren right here in Tanzania. Isn't that just the way God is? When we follow His plan, He takes care of all the details.
