Little things....

Little things....

It snowed last night again...about three inches ....so another icy day...but this land desperately needs water..so I can't begrudge the snow...

As I look out my hotel window, everything is sparkling white, few vehicles on the roads, the lights are still shining making the snow look like millions of snowflake diamonds.....so pretty to look at, but oh, so cold to be out in...

Little pieces of ice adding up to a reservoir full of water .....one small act of kindness makes a big  difference in someone's life...the small ant gives a huge lesson in stewardship...a piece of bread feeds a prophet...one Christmas gift for a lonely senior....one tiny baby moves the nation, saves the world....one word changes the day.....a gift from each person provides for the building of the tabernacle in the desert....a potter molding a pot helps us look at our lives as being molded....seeds on various types of ground asks us what kind of "ground" we are....so many little things with big lessons, big outcomes .....

Thank YOU for the little things that teach, encourage us through the. It times in life....

Jesus calling-December 28

I am your refuge and strength, an ever-present Help in trouble. Therefore, you don’t need to be afraid of anything—not even cataclysmic circumstances. The media are increasingly devoted to fear-inducing subject matter: terrorism, serial killers, environmental catastrophes. If you focus on such dangers and forget that I am your Refuge in all circumstances, you will become increasingly fearful. Every day I manifest My grace in countless places and situations, but the media take no notice. I shower not only blessings but also outright miracles on your planet.

As you grow closer to Me, I open your eyes to see more and more of My Presence all around you. Things that most people hardly notice, like shifting shades of sunlight, fill you with heart-bursting Joy. You have eyes that see and ears that hear, so proclaim My abiding Presence in the world.

God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble. Therefore we will not fear, though the earth give way and the mountains fall into the heart of the sea, though its waters roar and foam and the mountains quake with their surging.
—Psalm 46:1–3

Blessed are those who have learned to acclaim you, who walk in the light of your presence, O Lord.
—Psalm 89:15
