So I'm not sure if this fits your post or not....
I had a Somali friend, who was here in the US, without her parents. Her father was in Kenya, and mother was dead. She was driving this crappy car, and the windshield wipers were not working. I felt like I really needed to help fix her car, and that this is what G-d would have me do. You say why, and I don't have an answer to that. I just felt that was what I should do.
So I really didn't have the money for a new wiper motor, but I bought it on credit, and went to her place of work. She had driven in the rain, all the way to work.
There I am in the parking lot, trying to figure out how to install a windshield wiper motor, not knowing what I was doing. I worked on it for over and hour, and realized I simply didn't have a clue how to replace a motor in this foreign car of hers. I barely knew what I was doing on a Ford or Chevy, but this was a Hyundai or something.
Finally, I just told G-d that I didn't know what I was doing, or have any idea how to replace this motor, but that I didn't want my friend driving so dangerously out in the rain, without wipers.
In that moment, the very moment I was speaking this prayer.... the wrench I was holding slipped, and tapped on a bolt, and the windshield wipers jerked. G-d had answered me. The wrench had touched the grounding bolt, causing the motor for the wipers to turn on. The bolt was rusted and wasn't making a connection. When the wrench touched it, it connected the circuit, and motor turned on.
All I had to do was pull that bolt off, clean it, and put it back on. The motor in the car was good, so I could return the wiper motor I had bought.
She never had a problem with the wipers on her car again.
People can say it was coincidence. But for me.... That was G-d asking me to do something, and then helping me, help someone else.
