No one knows the mind of God, but we can get a glimpse of it through knowing Jesus.
John 14
5: Thomas said to him, "Lord, we don't know where you are going, so how can we know the way?"
6: Jesus answered, "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.
7: If you really knew me, you would know my Father as well. From now on, you do know him and have seen him."
That is a good answer to the coincidence thing...makes a lot of sense. Thx.
