What a fabulous book about the many ways in which God works through all manner of ways and seemingly coincidences.
I loved this book and encourage others to read it and have their minds encouraged. It also makes 'a difference [to other people lives as] your purchase of this book, helps fund our many outreach programs to military personnel, prisons , hospitals , nursing homes, and educational institutions.
So is a great buy for you and others.
I was given this book by NetGalley and the publisher. This is my voluntary and impartial review.

In my usual tradition, I have found another book with short stories of magical miracles seemingly sent from above. Mysterious Ways by the editors of Guideposts is a lovely book that will hopefully put a smile on your face, as it did mine.

I enjoyed the fact that these stories are short and sweet, some only being about a page or two. For example, I think this is the first story in the book, it’s about a couple who owns a boat, and they typically take it out on the water-the wife drives the boat while the husband meets her at the dock in the truck, but on this particular day, the husband decided that he wanted to drive the boat. The wife was okay with that, and drove down to the dock, waiting for him to show up. After about a half an hour, she grew impatient and worried, but then saw him slowly sputtering along. When he reaches the dock, he explains that something happened to the boat, but luckily he had put a spare part in one of the compartments a couple of weeks ago, so he was about to rig the boat to get to the dock. The wife wouldn’t have known that there was that extra part there, so if she had taken the boat, she would have been stranded for Lord knows how long. Thankfully, he had the mind to drive the boat that day, mysterious huh?

There are no other explanations or any deep narrative in these stories about who/what/why these things happened, and that’s one of the things that I really enjoyed about this book. It forces you to draw your own conclusion. Each story leaves you to make up your own mind about the outcome of the story. Did it happen by coincidence, divine intervention, or just because? I suppose it depends on what you truly believe, but each of these stories has a little magical element to it.

Did I tell you that these are true stories as well? Gotta love that! I had a blast reading this book, it gave me a little pick me up through out the days when I was feeling exhausted and overwhelmed with life. It’s incredible to know that even in the little things, there can be a spark of a miracle. I give this book 5 out of 5 stars, it was put together very well, the writing was perfect, and each chapters work well together.

Mysterious ways is one certifiable , unbelievable , uncharacteristically moving book to the core of your heart . This book even gives you the honest-to-goodness chills and how GOD intervened in their lives, for instance the very first one - briefly the husband the boat to meet his wife at work because she felt like there was something wrong. She got to work and time went by a long time and he finally showed up . I won't tell you what took so long but just because of that alone you need to get it. The next stories glorify GOD even deeper than you can imagine
- you see she was praying for her husband. God is good isn't he ? Amen ?

These are the kind of stories that will make you catch your breath in wonder and astonishment. You'll be amazed at how God works, in both little things and big things, and if you're not sure if you're a believer, these stories will make you rethink that. Most of them are simple, everyday tales where God has lined up all the chess pieces perfectly. A few of them are big, over the top miracles. The chapters are divided up by 'type' of event....illness, injury, daily struggles, parenting, etc.

I subscribed to Guideposts for many years and His Mysterious Ways was my favorite column. I have one of the previous collections of this column and it was a delight to see a new book chock full of wonderful stories of God's miraculous provision.
