God Cares About the Littlest Things

I dropped the needle. Ugh. I'm already feeling stressed and frustrated. I don't have time to search for a needle. I have no choice. If I don't find it, someone, or one of the dogs, will get stuck by it.

I don't move. I look at the top of the coat on my lap and search for the needle. Maybe it fell to the floor and into the carpet. No! My eyes scan the carpet underneath me hoping to see the glisten of the needle. Where is it LORD? Maybe it got caught in the coat as it fell to the floor. I slowly flip back the section that I was sewing and search some more. I push on the floor with my feet to roll the chair back a little. Please show me where it is LORD. I carefully lift the coat off of my lap watching to see if anything falls. More frustration. I wonder how long I will have to search.

My eyes happen to look at the spool of thread sitting on the desk. There is the needle laying on the desk right next to the spool. I had watched it fall off the desk. Oh LORD thank you so much! Tears.

Without a doubt God picked up that needle and placed it on the desk. This is not the first time He has done that for me. That He would stoop to pick up a needle that I had dropped, and lay it in a place where no one would get stuck by it, and where I would see it, is a most profound statement of His Love and His Care for me. He knew how badly I needed to see that right now. If He is so concerned about and involved in this little problem, why would He not also be concerned about and involved in the big one that looms over me? That was what He was saying. I love the way He speaks.

Thank you so much my LORD. Thank you.

Casting all your care on him; for he cares for you. 1 Peter 5:7

The LORD is good, a strong hold in the day of trouble; and he knows them that trust in him. Nahum 1:7

Cast your cares on the LORD and he will sustain you; he will never let the righteous fall. Psalm 55:22

Preparing to Come Back to Blogging

I think God is leading me to come back to blogging so I'm gearing up. It will still be a bit slow because time is still a major factor but He will make a way. It will be nice to see you all again.

When Friends Attack

Psalm 91


He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High

will rest in the shadow of Shaddai (the Almighty).

I will say of the Lord, “He is my refuge and my fortress,

my God, in whom I trust.”


Surely he will save you from the fowler’s snare

and from the deadly pestilence.


He will cover you with his feathers,

and under his wings you will find refuge;

his faithfulness will be your shield and rampart.


You will not fear the terror of night,

nor the arrow that flies by day,

nor the pestilence that stalks in the darkness,

nor the plague that destroys at midday.


A thousand may fall at your side,

ten thousand at your right hand,

but it will not come near you.


You will only observe with your eyes

and see the punishment of the wicked.


If you make the Most High your dwelling—

even the Lord, who is my refuge—

then no harm will befall you,

no disaster will come near your tent.


For he will command his angels concerning you

to guard you in all your ways;


they will lift you up in their hands,

so that you will not strike your foot against a stone.

You will tread upon the lion and the cobra;

you will trample the great lion and the serpent.


“Because he loves me,” says the Lord, “I will rescue him;

I will protect him, for he acknowledges my name.


He will call upon me, and I will answer him;

I will be with him in trouble,

I will deliver him and honor him.

With long life will I satisfy him

and show him my salvation.”

Just a Thought

I found this on the internet and thought I would share it here. I miss you all and think of you. One day God will create an opportunity for me to return to blogging regularly. (...and maybe get a new blog design too. Mine is awful! LOL!)

Mary had a little lamb,
His fleece was white as snow.
And everywhere that Mary went,
The Lamb was sure to go.
He followed her to school each day,
Twasnt even in the rule.
He made the children laugh and play.
To have a Lamb at school.
And then the rules all changed one day,
illegal it became;
To bring the Lamb of God to school,
Or even speak his Name.
Everyday got worse and worse,
And days turned into years.
Instead of hearing children laugh,
We heard gun shot and tears.
What must we do to stop the crime,
That's in our schools today?
Let's let the Lamb come back to school,
And teach our children to pray!
