I in no way mean to belittle my Savior and Lord, I do however mean to let you know that he cares about our seeminly "little things".
I choose to share my experiences in way of 2 stories, both which happened to me very recently....
One fine day 3 young ladies shared a bathroom, they all had lots of hair, a lot of their hair fell out, and it got clogged in the bathtub drain (so we speculate at this point in the story). One of them has a nice boyfriend who also has past plumbing skills, he attempts to "snake" the drain, pour "Liquid Fire" down the drain (which apparently sets the things in the drain on fire per the smoke that came out!)...all to little avail. One of the other roomies also "snaked" the drain b/c she really likes getting digusting things out of stuff..also to no avail. SO... last Sunday, as the same particular roomate is in her Sunday best, she feels like God says, "Snake it again", "no God she thinks, I already tried that", to which she feels God respond, "Sure, just try it again". Um, to say it lightly...a LOT of hair came out of the drain! Yeah, our drain now works again! Please refer to the following Bible passage and story :Luke 5:6 "And when they had done this, they enclosed a large number of fish, and their nets were breaking." Apparently God continues to work with the same principles as thousands of years ago! And just as God cares about fishing, He also cares about plumbing! Praise the Lord!
2nd story:
So, I was shopping at Target for journals for my Sunday School class. I am mentally thinking, "i want to pay $1 per journal, and it to be cute." I go to Wal-Mart: $1.68 per cute journal. "mmm, God I don't want to pay that much." God says, "Don't get it". I say, "No God, I have to, i already looked at Target, there aren't any." ....I walk away with no journal and I pretty much need to get it today!
Next morning, Mom and I go to Target, there are 3 cute journals for $1 each! "Yeah, thanks God, but I need 5 more!" I think, well, I'll just get some at the other Target, but I must go now, 1 hr. before work, and I have to get them today!
So I go to the next nearest Target, where are the cute $1 journals? And before I can even finish looking............. I spot a package, a package of 3 cute journals for $1! 3 cute journals for $1 - "God, that's more than I was asking for!" "And God, they are cute and small, so they can go in the girls purses or Bibles". So I purchase my cute journals, & I shall take the other $1 each journals back to Target. And as I was walking out in the Target parking lot I said outloud to my Father and friend, "God, your cost effective."! And I love that I have this amazing relationship with God that we can talk about the "oh so 'little' things"!.....and He answers!
" Now to him who is able to do far more abundantly than all that we ask or think, according to the power at work within us."Eph. 3:20
