We have one. He's just not interested in HGRM right now.

I read an old story a couple of days ago. You all may have been exposed to it at one time or another. But it quite impressed me with the mysteries of life. The story went something like this:

One day, farmer Fleming was working in his fields when he heard a distant, frantic cry for help. He put down his pitchfork and went looking for the source of the cry. Eventually he found a boy stuck in the muck of a peat bog. He was slowly sinking further and further in and would eventually have gone to a horrible death. Farmer Fleming pulled him out, wiped him off a bit, and sent him on his way.

The next day, a very fine carriage pulled up to Farmer Fleming's rough cottage. A lord of some sort stepped out and approached Farmer Fleming. The lord asked Fleming if he was the man who had saved his son from death the day before. Farmer Fleming acknowledged that it was he who had done the deed. The lord expressed his profound gratitude and offered a very generous reward to Fleming. Fleming declined, saying that he had only done what anyone would have done.
As they stood and talked, the lord noticed another young man nearby, about the same age as the lord's, and asked Fleming if it were his own son. Fleming said is was. The lord then offered to take the farmer's son and see that he received an education, something he surely would not receive if he stayed on the farm. Farmer Fleming agreed to the offer and the boy eventually went on to become a very good physician.

At some time in his adult life, the son of the lord contracted pneumonia and was near death. But his life was saved by a marvelous new medicine, penecillin, which was discovered by Dr. Fleming. The name of the lord's son was Winston Churchill.

Now you tell me that God doesn't work in mysterious ways.....
