NOTHING IS TOO LITTLE FOR GOD'S ATTENTION

I am a big believer that God has already solved all of our problems...whether the problem is on its way to us or already in our life. Our job, then, is not to try to think our way around, or out of, the problem, but to open ourselves to Him. Just open...to Her, to It...go to God for God, that is all.

Case in point: We are having a fairly drastic cold spell here…as in,19 degrees when I awoke this morning, and in the very low 20s now at 1:30 PM. At 6:00 AM some of my electricity went out…including the heat…and at 7:00 AM everything went. Did not come back until 1:30 PM.

Here's how God solved the problem I didn't even know I was going to have: I was at Target for my paper products yesterday and saw a pair of extra-warm fuzzy knee socks...looked at them and decided I didn't need them since I have a pair of fleece booties (that I put on in September and don't take off till May), but I put them in my cart and bought them. I have them on with my fleece booties right this minute...they may be the only thing that saved my feet up to my knees from frostbite.

Further, I have a winter coat that weighs at least a ton and, because it is so warm, I haven’t worn it in years. Just last month I took it out to give to Salvation Army but didn't get around to donating it. I wrapped Ruckus and me in it this morning, and I'm sure it saved our bodies from being found someday, frozen stiff.

It really is the little things that prove Truth…the little things that we so easily consider coincidences, or certainly too little for God to be involved in. Listen, if He can be involved with the likes of you and me, nothing is too little for His attention. For which I am grateful.

Thank You.
