Trust in the small things...


The last month of my life has been a whirl wind... I have traveled across 5 states, found out that I needed surgery, gotten the surgery, began recovery from the surgery, organized a conference, led a conference, all while making incredible new friends and deepening the relationships with old friends. All of it has NOT been fun... but I can see God's purpose in it.

Have you ever spent time and organized your life solely so that it can bless God? Regardless of how it might inconvenience you? Or how you may or may not seriously need down time... just solely seeking to bless God? Embracing the phrase... "It's NOT about me."

Well in the last 24 hours I have felt a deepening presence around me I just feel like God is seeking to bless me! One of my favorite verses and songs are "seek ye first the kingdom of God and His righteousness and all these things will be added unto you." ... all the while... not focusing on the last half but the first half... I want you to know that we serve a God who longs to bless us. Frequently... he just needs a little attention first... and what He'd really like is for that attention to be consistent and building.

Within 24 hours I have experienced 4 major major blessings and miracles from God (Sometimes God just wants to bless us!) I won't share the first three to protect the parties involved from hounding. But I will say that all three are BIG!

The fourth was a simple one that just made me feel good! Last night when I went to bed, my car was parked and the gas gauge was on empty. When I woke up this morning, it was on full. I am the only one with a set of keys to my car. How cool is my living God, Jesus!!!
