God is Awesome!

God doesn't have to show me things or do things for me to realize He's awesome. The fact that He sent his only son to die for all of our sins is awesome enough. But, when He does do things, it is completely humbling.

You see, a few weeks ago I lost a $100 bill. I have no idea what happened to it. One day it was sitting on our kitchen counter and 2 days later it was gone. I don't know if I accidently threw it away or if one of the kids got it and put it somewhere or if I put it in my purse and it fell out. No matter what happened to it, I've searched my house up and down, inside out and backwards...and I can't find it anywhere. I seriously worried myself sick over it! I mean to me $100 is still a lot of money! :) Well, life went on and I forgot about the $100...

This past Friday I checked the mail and much to my surprise I find a refund check from my doctor's office for $95!! I went to the doctor a few weeks ago and they told me that I didn't owe them any money because I had a balance. I didn't really question it, I was just glad that I didn't have to pay my co-pay. I had no idea that I had a balance of over $100! I still don't know why, but now, I realize that this was simply God's way of telling me to stop worrying about the money I had lost and trust in Him.

I think that is something that I'm constantly struggling with as a Christian...I think, no I know, that I worry way to much about stuff that in the end will not matter. What's awesome is that God knows my worries and He is always there to lift me and remind me of what truly matters!

God is AWESOME!!
