Title: Do you believe in god?

The Lord Provideth: Woman wins $1million Lotto jackpot after atheist son prays for prize

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1391666/The-Lord-Provideth-Woman-wins-1-million-Lotto-jackpot-atheist-son-prays-prize.html

A non-religious son who mockingly prayed for God to let his mother win the lottery was stunned after she hit the $1 million jackpot the next day.

Sal Bentivegna, 28, jokingly prayed for his 61-year-old mother Gloria to win the lottery after she lost money at a casino on a family trip to Atlantic City.

Miraculously Mrs Bentivegna then won the New York Lottery's Sweet Million game and will receive $50,000 a year for the next 20 years.


Divine: Mrs Bentivegna scooped her $1 million win after a sarcastic prayer from her atheist son

Speaking to the New York Post, Mr Bentivegna told how he sarcastically told his mother to 'ask your God to ask for a million dollars,' shortly after she lost out on a penny slots machine.

Being a good Catholic, she refused.

So instead Mr Bentivegna went ahead and prayed: 'God, I don't know if you're real or not, but if you are there, please let my mother win a million dollars.

'It was off the cuff at the slot machines,' he added.

'If Jesus wants me to believe in him, that's what he'll do.'

The very next day Mrs Bentivegna bought a 'lotto tree' of unscratched instant win tickets from a Church charity auction and struck gold.

The seemingly devine intervention has seen Mr Bentivegna become a believer.

He said: 'Lo and behold, she gets it the next day. I sat back and thought about it and realised the odds against this are astronomical.

'I can't shrug off that Jesus had a hand in it. No pun intended, it was a Godsend.'

Mrs Bentivegna, thrilled at her win and her son's conversion, said: 'God performed two miracles, a true miracle.'

If God had a name, what would it be
And would you call it to his face
Ifyou were faced with him in all his glory
What would you ask if you had justone question

And yeah yeah God is great yeah yeah God is good
yeah yeah yeah yeahyeah

What if God was one of us
Just a slob like one of us
Just a stranger onthe bus
Trying to make his way home

If God had a face what would it look like
And would you want to see
Ifseeing meant that you would have to believe
In things like heaven and injesus and the saints and all the prophets

And yeah yeah god is great yeah yeah god is good
yeah yeah yeah yeahyeah

What if God was one of us
Just a slob like one of us
Just a stranger onthe bus
Trying to make his way home
He's trying to make his wayhome
Back up to heaven all alone
Nobody calling on the phone
Except forthe pope maybe in rome

And yeah yeah God is great yeah yeah God is good
yeah yeah yeah yeahyeah

What if god was one of us
Just a slob like one of us
Just a stranger onthe bus
Trying to make his way home
Just trying to make his wayhome
Like a holy rolling stone
Back up to heaven all alone
Just tryingto make his way home
Nobody calling on the phone
Except for the pope maybe in Rome
