I was thinking this morning about coincidence.
A couple of years ago, when I was very sick, I realised I wasn't alone. That was a turning point for me and set me on my way back to God. My doctors name was Muhammad.
Later on, my own doctor sent me to a therapist because he thought I needed help to stop pushing myself. I thought it sounded a bit nuts. But I went.
One day, out of the blue, the therapist told me in passing about this Sufi guy she had met. She wasn't a muslim, indeed, when I asked her, she had no interest whatsoever in Islam. But the Sufi has remained in my head and has lead to my reading about Sufism and a strong interest in it.
Are these things mere coincidence? Or is it how the world works?
