A Planned Accident

We went to a hotel to celebrate a friend's birthday, becasue we heard that the food there is really nice... The restaurant is not yet opened so we stayed at the lobby... While waiting, I went to the comfort room. My two friends went with me... We saw stairs beside the comfort room... We went down the stairs and realized that it is leading to an underground parking lot... We decided to get out of the hotel and buy a cake for our friend... We went to a store near the hotel but didn't find a nice cake... Then, we went to a mall... We saw Goldilock's and looked for a cake... We were not satisfied so we went to the supermaket but didn't find anything... We returned to Goldilock's... After buying a cake, the birthday celebrator texted us.. They are looking for the three of us. She said that we will change our venue... "Go to the mall near the hotel." Waaaaahhhhh! We were already there.. We panicked... Haha... Then she texted again... She said the location of the final venue... We were relieved... We got out of Goldilock's and walked outside the mall so that we can commute. I was ahead of my two friends... Suddenly, I saw the birthday celebrator with our other friends.. I shouted, "Ara sila, Dasig!" Instead of going back, I went down the stairs so they won't see me.. My two other friends ran backwards... When I didn't see my two friends going my way, I returned and saw many people. I saw my two friends helping an old lady stand up... I asked them what happened... My other friend bumped the lady and the lady fell down. Actually, she was really in pain... She got mad and got my friend's cell number and other personal infos... She gave a number of a doctor... The doctor came after some time... My friend helped the doctor in carrying the old lady and he went to the hospital with the lady and the doctor... My other friend and I were shocked of what happened and we proceeded to the venue. We texted our friend who went to the hospital and aske how is the lady.. He said that the lady has a bone fracture and needs an operation. Woah!... Shocking... He also mentioned that the doctor is a son of the lady.. Wah!!! After eating, we bought food for our friend because we are sure that he is already hungry. We went back to him. He is really bothered which is obvious because I never saw him like that before. We comforted him and told him that we will pray for it. At home, I prayed about what happened... One second of delay may change everything... But God is never late... He is also not to early.. He is an exact God... He reminded me that everything has a purpose although He is not revealing some of it... God gave me a peaceful heart that night... The next day, we decided to visit the lady... We were scared of what will her reaction be.. We prayed before entering the room.. Praise God, we were welcomed by smiling faces... Some of the relatives and children of the lady were also there... It was a great experience because God worked in the heart of the lady... Her family is also nice... They were really good to us and said that they understand that what had happened is just an accident... The lady was also smiling... Before we leave, we prayed for the lady and she was really happy... After the prayer we have learned that they are Christians... Wow! I told them that I am a Pastor's kid (I'm really proud to be one) and guess what... The sons of the lady are also pastors (includibg the doctor)... I was amazed on how God planned this accident... There are plenty of people in the mall... Why the old lady? I guess God wants us to meet these brothers and sisters in Christ and be part of their lives... He also showed me that He has planned everything according to His will so that He will be glorified...
