God of the Everyday

What do you think of when people say "God loves you"?
Do you think of a loving father desperate to see you succeed? Do you think of a logical impossibility? Do you believe them?

One of the most incredible things in the Bible is that it tells us, time and time again, that God actually cares about the small details of our lives. He knows and cares so much about us that even the hairs on our head are numbered (Matthew 10:30). He promises to look after out daily needs (Matthew 7: 25-34) and watches every stage of our lives (Psalm 139:1-6, 13-16).

So we can say with confidence that God is the God of the Everyday. He cares about even the small details of our lives. Even though we might call some of the little things he does "trite miracles," He still does them. He took the time to help someone find a dropped axe-head (2 Kings 6:1-7). He cared enough to feed the people who listened to His Son (Matthew 14: 13-21; 15: 32-38).

Today you can walk with confidence knowing that God cares about even the smallest details of your life. Trust Him and He will lead you.
