God of the small details...

My conclusion of the week (and it's only Thursday, so watch out!): God is crazy awesome, loves me unbelievably, has a sense of humor and loves to remind me of all of this in some of the weirdest ways on a regular basis. I had to go to the dentist on Tuesday... not such a big deal until you realize how terrified I am of the dentist (second only to my fear of being alone in a strange dark place). I was, of course, freaking out and praying like crazy. By the time I got to the dentist I was to the point of just asking God for some tangible sign that he was aware of how freaked out I was. SO I survived the visit to the dentist, due to listening to my mp3 player I may forever associate Hillsong United with having teeth pulled, but my mind was elsewhere for a few brief moments and for that I was thankful. It may have been silly of me, but I kind of thought, "OK, God used the songs etc..." but of course it didn't stop there. I got home and in my facebook inbox was a message from a random person who had added me to their friends list that morning. The basic gist of the message was that he felt led by the Holy Spirit to pray for me on that day and gave me a Bible verse as well. Not only does God use random worship songs while I'm in a dentist's chair, he inspires someone from Ohio, who I've never met, to pray for me and then to tell me about it so I know it... yeah, God is big and I am small and for that I am very thankful, because there is no way I could orchestrate something like that. Was listening to Delirious? live album today and heard "Every little thing's gonna be alright" and couldn't help but worship in agreement. Have a great week!
