Day 936 – God Cares About Us, Even in the Small Things

I have now been a full-time wedding photographer for just about 5 months. It’s been quite a ride so far. I’ve learned so much about myself and my business. But I think the greatest thing I’ve learned is just how much God loves me. I’m reminded of the “normal stuff” like Christ dying for my sins and giving me new life. But last night, I was very moved by how He cares down to extremely small details.

The day we were in Target looking for Bret’s ring, he was also looking at the chocolate. I was of the mind of, eh, well, that’s a bit more than I’d like to spend…so we didn’t get any.

Then, last night, I was at my small group bible study through my church. Our current leader is actually the new head pastor of our church, which is so cool to me. I ended up hanging around for a little while after and just chatted about life and everything with my pastor and his wife. I had grabbed one little dark chocolate (Dove no less) candy for Bret. When my pastor’s wife noticed, she made me take another 7 pieces. It didn’t hit me until later how awesome that was. On the outside, it looks like someone being nice and giving something away. But deep down, to me, it is God showing that He sees even the smallest need want. What love! I find I’m crying for joy a lot more these days. 🙂
