God is in the Small Stuff

We easily find God in nature: the majesty of a rainbow after the thunderstorm; the incredible intricacy of a colony after ants; the still, quite of moonlit night; or the deafening roar of the mighty Niagara Falls. God is there, and we marvel at His handiwork.

We quickly identify God's involvement in the big celebrations of our lives: the birth of a child; the new job that remedies a financial crisis; or the car crash that left the vehicle totaled but the children unscathed. God is there, and we thank Him for His provision.

And we even acknowledge God's presence in the midst of tragedy: the report from the pathology lab; the severance notice; or the heartache in a home filled with broken relationships. God is there, and we depend upon Him for strength.

But seeing God in these "big things" of life is easy. The more difficult task-yet a challenge just as rewarding-is seeing Gid in our everyday, mundane activities. We need to have a "God's consciousness" about our daily routine. We need to have "divine perspective" about the details of life. We mustn't overlook God in the small stuff.

When we realized that God is in the ordinary, our daily grind suddenly has meaning and purpose. The household chores, whether the lawn or the laundry, become an opportunity to express love and care for the other members of the household. A walk to the mailbox brings a chance to greet the neighbor (who may be in desperate need of an encouraging word). The day at work presents the challenge of giving wholehearted effort which will be pleasing to God.

Before He created the universe ages ago, God knew all about us. We should not be surprised that He has ordered our days and is interactively involved in the events of our daily routine. Nothing escapes His notice. Nothing is too insignificant for His care. If we are involved with anything, so He is.

πŸ“ŒLive your life with an overwhelming sense that God is present in the details around you. There will be no boring moments. Life will take on new meaning when you begin to see God in the small stuff.❀

Being grateful to life is matters the most Ma'am and that's what God needs to use to be grateful despite being small that we have. It is still a blessing from Him. Thank you for your time visiting my little account hehe.
