More on “When God Winks at You”

Chapter one of this book talks about godwinks being personal. The stories of godwinks in this chapter highlight this fact.  The convey instances of people receiving godwinks and their effects on the person’s life.
Chapter two talks about godwinks of hope and reassurance that we receive in our lives.  This chapter is filled with stories of people receiving godwinks that provided them either hope, reassurance, or both.  The first story explains how Squire Rushnell began writing about godwinks, a story in its own, and a very interesting one at that.
Chapter three is a compilation of stories about receiving godwinks during times of transition in your life.  In this chapter, the author talks about the times of transition that we go through in our lives when we lose someone or something that we love. 
If, after reading the first three chapters of this book, you are still convinced of “coincidences”, perhaps that will change during the remainder of the book.  As for myself, I seriously doubt, at this point, that simple “coincidences” exist.
More to come …..

“When God Winks at You”

I am currently reading When God Winks at You, written by SQuire Rushnell. First, I will give you a little background on the author. Squire Rushnell was previously an ABC Network Television executive and has been involved with many well known shows, Good Morning America, being one of the most prominent. He was the father of the Schoolhouse Rock series and ABC’s After School Specials. Squire Rushnell left his position to follow his dream of being an author and inspirational speaker.

The sub-title of this book is, “How God Speaks Directly to You Through the Power of Coincidence.” This sub-title described perfectly the content of this book. In this book, Squire introduces the concept of a “godwink” The book is a compilation of “stories” of individuals experiencing “godwinks”. I have completed Chapter One and am well into Chapter Two at this time.

I have to say, after reading only the first chapter; one might ponder whether there are any real “coincidences” in life – or all they all “godwinks”. I will continue my review as I continue through the book. However, I might suggest that you pick this book up – read it carefully – then make your own determination as to whether coincidences really exist – or are they – godwinks.
