God of the little things

Little things matter. When God gets involved in the minutia of life, unmistakably intervening in the smallest details of our day-to-day dilemmas, it means he cares enough to bother with what’s bothering us. The God who created the vast universe works through life’s circumstances to bring about his good purposes. That’s big.

We know, too, that if God is involved in our everyday lives, he’s also working on the more complicated situations — the big things. He might just be working behind the scenes.

When troubles come and God seems not to notice, think of times when he’s intervened. Recount and revel in them. Rest assured in God’s perfect plan for big and small. “We know that all things work together for good for those who love God, who are called according to his purpose” (Romans 8:28, NRSV).

I pray that God will show His glory to all of you every day.

In Christ’s Love,

Pastor Kimberly
