Was it fate, or just plain luck?

The wife, 4 year old son, and me went down to Council Bluffs to pick up a check from a customer and deposit it in our bank. We pick up the check, go down Broadway, and for some reason I drove right past the bank. I remembered right after we passed the bank, and decided to go to Mcdonalds drive thru first, then back to the bank. So we did. When we get back to the bank, people are standing around and cops are everywhere. Someone had just robbed the bank! Freaks me out! No one hurt, but still.....

    You do know what you get when you cross fate and luck?

    I know how you feel. A couple months ago, I went in to deposit some money in our local bank. There were only two other people in the bank and I didn't pay much attention to them. Anyway, I did my business and left. Later I heard that the bank had been robbed. The next day a police detective called to ask me if I had noticed the other two people and if I could identify them. I told him that I couldn't. Apparently, one of the other men waiting behind me in line held up the bank after I left. It's a weird feeling. Especially since I never carry my pistol into the bank or P.O.

    How 'bout some God to go with those fries?

    Why does man kill? He kills for food. But not only for food; frequently, he must have a beverage.

    Someone was watching over you.

    If you will blame gun makers for every shooting then blame car maker for every car accident.

    No doubt someone above was watching over you,if you had went there the outcome could have been very different.

    God was probably looking out for you, but you may have noticed something out of place, though that seems a bit doubtful. What is God trying to do in your life, Kyle

    About 3 years ago I pull up to the O.K at about 2 in the morning to get something to drink I go to get out my car and look inside the place was in the middle of getting robbed.I got back n my car and eased on out of there and called the cops.Most of the time I dont even pay attention I just jump out get my money ready on the way in.Im glad I looked first this time.He probably would have shot me I only had $1.50 on me and no gun.
