It seems that whenever I go on a trip, before I get too far down the
road I remember something I forgot. When I assured her that I had not 
forgotten anything, I sensed a slight pause on the other end and then 
she said, “Did you miss your plane?” 

Within the next few minutes I was bombarded with question after
question, all I did was call, and at this point, I could not remember 
why I had called her. It just seemed like the thing to do at the time. 

After she settled down a little bit and her panic seizure ceased, I told
her I just called to call. 

“Oh,” she said, not knowing how to answer that. 

I was shocked. It had never happened before. I am going to cherish this
memory for as long as I live. I actually caught her when she had 
nothing to say. Needless to say, I relished that moment because it will 
probably never happen again. 

After I hung up, I sat sipping some more coffee when one of my favorite
verses came to mind. “And it shall come to pass, that before they call, 
I will answer; and while they are yet speaking, I will hear” (Isaiah 
65:24). 

My comfort rests in the fact that God is closer to me than my cell
phone.
