The Little Things

We often post testimonies of how our Lord is mindful of the little things in our lives. It’s those little nudges the Lord gives us to show He cares and He’s watching over every little need. But just as we appreciate the little things our Lord Jesus does for us, have you ever thought how much Father appreciates the little things we can do for Him? Like this sister did when the Lord moved to restore her lost purse, she made sure to do a little something to show her appreciation by testifying of Him.

Yesterday, I went shopping and absent-mindedly placed my purse on top of my car in order to rearrange the groceries inside my car. At the next store I reached for my purse and realized it wasn’t there. Turning around to retrace my steps, I prayed aloud, “Lord, please have a nice, honest young man find my purse and call me.” After the prayer I noticed how peaceful I felt. (I was also rejoicing that my phone was in my pocket and not in my purse.)

One minute later my phone rang. I answered with, “Do you have my purse?” “Yes,” the man answered. I responded with, “I just prayed that a nice honest man would find it and I want to say God bless you.”

He told me his location and I met him to retrieve my purse. He was a soldier, stationed here in Fairbanks. I gave him a witnessing card, and with this these words, I parted with him, “Here is a gift card for you, but you have to look this up to receive your gift.”

God bless you,
