My car ditched the road for the ditch full of muck
It rolled on it’s side
I rolled out; yelled, “Yuck!”
Then along came a dude in a big ol’ tow truck
Was it “luck”, or was it the Lord?

I searched high and low for a job for a year
My kids rarely full
My spouse full of fear
Then appeared out of nowhere, an amazing career
“Lucky stars”, or the “Star of the Morn”?

I dined alone, lonesome; long time since last hug
My joy was in sleep mode
My hopes were unplugged
Then an old friend embraced me, out-of-the-blue!
Was it “fate”, or… You-Know-Who?

The prenatal test showed that something was wrong
The doc said “abort”
She wouldn’t live “long”
But our baby turned out to be normal and strong
Call it “chance”?

Not a chance.

With gusto, I call it God’s grace!
