God in the "little" things.....
Why am I ever amazed that God cares about the little things....His word tells us so and He has demonstrated this thru answered prayer so many times in my life. Yesterday was a very busy day at work. The patients that were assigned to me were in rooms next to each other...so I was blessed not to have to walk far, as I ran continuously from one room to the other all day. I was wearing a pair of earrings that my daughter gave me two years ago. The earrings probably only cost $35.00 but that was $35.00 more than she had at the time, nevertheless, she wanted me to have these earrings. At one point in my day, I looked in the mirror and noticed that one of my earrings were missing. I mentioned this to several staff members and housekeeping and asked them to be on the "lookout". I told God, "You know, it's just an earring, but my sweet daughter gave it to me and I sure would like to find it"....One of my patient's told me that she had found the back to an earring in her room, so at this point, I was sure it was located there. After I transferred this patient to another room, I went back to her old room and searched everything, including the trash cans and dirty laundry. Several hours later, I was preparing my second patient for transfer to another room when a "sparkle" caught my eye, next to her bathroom door....it was the earring. I shared with everyone I could how God even cares about those "little" things.

To think that such a BIG GOD cares about such tiny things! It's amazing, simply amazing! Many years ago, I too lost a precious piece of jewelry. It was a tiny gold butterfly charm that had been my mothers. I looked everywhere, simply everywhere, and could not find it. Weeks and months went by, nothing. At the time, I had one of those water vacuum cleaners that I only used occasionally. I took it outside to dump it out and clean it. As I dumped inside, something inside of me told me to look through the nasty looking clump before me! YUK....but I did and there, in the midst of it, was my charm! I just started crying right there on the grass and thanking God. WE are important to Him and our deep desires are His. PRAISE BE TO GOD, THE KING OF KINGS!
