Incredible Coincidences

Celebrity World Vol. 5 No. 258, July 22, 1996
On the cover: Caroline “Cara” Subijano

I have compiled many accounts of “Incredible Coincidences” from the books, magazines and newspapers that I have read, and I have written several articles about them. This is possibly the third one. The first one was published in MOD Filipina 14th Anniversary Special (September 1988), aptly titled "The World's 14 Most Incredible Coincidences."

“All things are done according to GOD’s plan and decision; and GOD chose us to be His own people in union with Christ because of His own purpose, based on what he had decided from the very beginning.” – Paul’s Letter to the Ephesians 1:11, The Good News Bible in Today’s English Version.
