God Works in Strange Ways

I had a terrible financial crisis last January that caused a housing crisis in which I faced possible eviction and homelessness. I could no longer afford my 31/2 pack per day cigarette habit so I had to quit cold turkey. I couldn't sleep for 4 straight days while suffering from acute anxiety from all of my adverse circumstances. The fact is, I have severe COPD so it was essential for me to quit smoking. It took a serious financial crisis to impel me to do so. Even though I suffered greatly, I have remained abstinent for nearly 7 months without any serious cravings. Needless to say, my continuing abstinence is helping my health. Isn't it amazing how God can create adversity that actually has very valuable side benefits. God really does work in strange ways.
