BTW, I took a look at your blog and really enjoyed some of the posts. I liked your comment about God never saying "This woman doesn't listen. I'm never talking to her again!" (Or words to that effect.) Now if only I could be that patient myself.
I also have a mildly amusing World Vision story. (Saw your post about supporting a girl through them.) Years ago, I saw a World Vision special about Somalia and decided I wanted to go work there. So I sent them my resume. A few weeks later, I got a call to see if I would be willing to go work in a refugee camp in the Philippines. A few weeks after that, I found myself working in the Philippines.
It wasn't until after I had been overseas a while that I realized the agency I was working for wasn't the same one I'd seen on TV. I was working for World Relief, not World Vision. Turns out World Vision had forwarded my resume to World Relief, which was an entirely different organization. (I thought I'd just mis-remembered the name, not that they were two separate entities.) Anyway, it turned out all right.
Have a lovely day,
