And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose. Romans 8:28 (KJV)

I was getting ready to take my girls for a walk today and I had the hardest time finding my shoes and then my keys. It took us a good ten to fifteen minutes. LOL...

Anyway, we finally got out the door. It looked a bit cloudy, but I figured we would be OK. Well, we didn't even get one minute into our walk and it started to rain. So, we ran back to the house and decided to go to the grocery store instead.

From the back seat my 12 year old daughter said, "See Mom, all things work for the good to those that love the Lord. If you didn't misplace your shoes and keys, we would have gotten soaken wet!"

I was stunned by her child like obersavation and how wise and trusting of the Word that it truely was. And you know what? She's right!

We forget this Scripture in our day to day lives....ALL things...not just the big stuff, but the little stuff too. God is always working things out in our favor. Sometimes it takes a child to point out what should be obvious.

I am encouraging you and myself to look for these moments in our lives. Take the time to "see" all the ways God works things our for us....big AND small!

Have a wonderful morning, afternoon, and evening!

That was a great testimony... a great reminder for everyone. Your daughter is very bright to have that type of insight...especially how it's a blessing that comes from the Lord.

Incredible. Sometimes I think that they understand better than we do!
