Lay action and divine intervention

Just checked my messages having been gone for the past week and was haunted by the call of a church family asking for help in dealing with someone who was suicidal. They expressed a desire for some strategic intervention. Naturally, I felt badly that I was not here to give them some support but inwardly I felt confident that this family would have found the help needed.

I just got off the phone and they summarized the potential crisis as a miracle of God's intervention...all the necessary parts of the puzzle "fell into place" at just the right time, and the help needed was secured with a good result. I will get to hear more details later. When we are faithful to act isn't it neat to see how God intervenes?
