The late Igor used to say that God watched out for fools and drunks, and I somehow don’t think Bill falls into the latter category, so I’m thinking God is watching out for him.
When neither of my kids was in contact with me, I had to trust that God was taking care of them for me. After some of the things my daughter told me when I visited a couple of years ago, I think I’m glad I didn’t know! Although, that’s a thing that God is uniquely suited for — watching out for foolish children.
Yes, we’d all be a mess if God wasn’t looking out for us. Even more than we are, I mean.
