A "Thank you Jesus" situation

Genesis 24:1-27

Abraham had wandered from Charan to Mamre. He had failed to produce an offspring, had a son my the maid and then another by his wife. The son had grown to adulthood. It was time to find him a wife. No postal service, no telegrams, no telephones, no cell phones, no Skype or Google chat. No constant "How are you? Gosh how the children have grown."
Then there was the journey. How did the servant know how to get from Abraham to Nahor? No GPS, not even a map. Yet the journeys were made and the relatives found.
On a much lesser scale Naomi and I today were recalling our visit to a dinner last year.We arrived late and there were only four seats left, two opposite somebody I knew and two next two the computer guy of that church, we had one of our computer sons with us.  Thank you Jesus.
