It’s The Little Things
Happy Day People! Rise and shine and give God the glory, glory, children of the Lord! (childhood song!) Another beautiful day has come from which the moments await! Are you dragging just a little? Are you hitting that snooze again? Are you still in a “dead end” job and afraid to move on or why haven’t you made that job BETTER? Could you be realizing opportunity is there but your backbone isn’t? Is God leading you toward a different path on your journey? Maybe the kids are just not moving at the right pace to get out the door? Then that child, yeah the one slurping the milk from the cereal bowl says, “Hey, I love you”! Your phone starts buzzing, it’s mom or dad, a sibling or a friend; saying “have a good day”! And then a still small voice from within says, “Hey, you’ve got this”! At that moment an inspiration hits you that, yes I do have this! Isa Zapata said, “Finding magic in the little things and the big things will start to show up.” In these moments again, a little thing just sparked a jolt of encouragement. Maybe it’s that song playing and you really listen and hear the words. It could be that other person who spoke just to be polite. Or could it be that person who held the door as you approached? Little things; do you ever wonder why they are most important? Like that bird that always seems to sing, even in the rain! God used a young boy with five loaves and 2 fish to feed 5000 people! Look around, be aware, be positive, and see the little things. Don’t miss out on the little things; because God sees potential in the least of these!

Prayer:
Dear God, thank you for the little things; and showing me in His word that He can use the little things to make the big things! Let me be aware of all your creation and marvel at your works. Allow me not to miss out on special little things you put in my path to highlight my journey! Please provide me with the strength to move into the paths you provide knowing you are always there! May we provide others with the joy to see the little things! Amen.
