Mark Batterson in his book "Draw the Circle" shares this story by Ken Gaub. Sounds impossible but it happened to Gaub:

"A few years ago, I heard author Ken Gaub share one of the most amazing prayer testimonies I've ever heard. He and his family were driving on I-75 near Dayton, Ohio, when they decided to stop at a restaurant. Ken's wife and children went right into the restaurant while he stretched his legs. As he walked past a nearby gas station, he heard a pay phone ringing. The phone kept ringing, and Ken thought it might be some sort of emergency so he answered it. He heard the voice of an operator, who said, 'Long distance for Ken Gaub.'

"Ken almost passed out. He said, 'You've got to be kidding me. I was just walking in the middle of nowhere and heard this phone ringing.' The confused operator said, 'Is Ken Gaub there?' After making sure there weren't any candid cameras, he said, 'This is Ken Gaub.'

"A voice on the other side of the line said, 'Mr. Gaub, my name is Millie. I'm from Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. You don't know me, but I need your help.' She went on to explain that she had just written a suicide note but had decided to give prayer one more shot. She said, 'God, I don't really want to do this.' And as she prayed, she remembered seeing Ken Gaub on television. She thought to herself, 'If I could  just talk with him, he could help me.' But this was pre-Google, making it extremely difficult to track him down, As she prayed, some numbers popped into her head, and she wrote them on a piece of paper. She couldn't help but think, 'Wouldn't it be wonderful if God were giving me Ken's number?' Then Millie said, 'I decided to try calling the number, and I couldn't believe it when the operator said it was you.'

"Millie asked Ken, 'Are you in your office?' When Ken said no, Millie sounded surprised. She said, 'Then where are you?' Ken said,' You made the call. Don't you know?' She said, 'I don't even know what area I'm calling. I just dialed the number on a piece of paper.' Ken said, 'You won't believe this. I'm in a phone booth in Dayton, Ohio.' Millie replied, "'What are you doing there?' Ken said, 'Answering a pay phone!'

"Ken went on to draw this conclusion"

"I walked away from the phone booth with an electrifying sense of heavenly Father's concern for each of His children. What were the astronomical odds of this happening? With all the millions of phones and innumerable combinations of numbers, only an all-knowing God could have caused that woman to dial that number in that phone booth at that moment in time.

"When Ken hung up the phone, he walked over to the restaurant and sat down with his family. Still stunned, he said, to his wife, Barb, ' You won't believe this. God knows where I am.'"
