My friend won Powerball...sort of

One of my friends, who is pretty much a confirmed atheist, prayed the other night that he would win the lottery for this past Saturday's drawing, Powerball to be more precise. He won three dollars. Now he's conflicted. He wasn't specific about how much he wanted to win, but he won nonetheless. So he took his "God" money, as he puts it, and bought three more tickets.

Today, he checked his numbers again and won again...three dollars. He's starting to think that there may be something going on that he doesn't understand and is taking his winnings as some sort of sign. Funny stuff, not sure what I think about it.

What do you think, random chance or divine intervention?
