In 1857, Joe Quigley and Jim McDermott emigrated from Ireland to America, wanting to become priests. Because they did not have the money for both to attend seminary, they agreed to flip a coin and have the loser pay the winner to attend. When Joe lost, he was devastated. With inner turmoil he tried hard to accept God’s will, and trust that it was for a better purpose. Wanting to be healed of his anger and resentment, he prayed for peace and to know God’s plan for his new direction. Decades later, God showed him the answer to his initial question of, “Why Lord did I lose the coin flip?” His heart burst with praise and gratitude for the unexpected blessings given in his later years. This engaging story shows how God works in the lives of ordinary people to do extraordinary things.
