It's been funny lately how the Holy Spirit has been working in mine and my families lives. I used to think that sometimes things just happen and you just roll with the punches. Until recently when God showed me that a Christian's steps are truly ordered by Him.
The other day my wife went to get change so she could pay for some cupcakes that we were having decorated by a friend for my daughters 6th birthday party. The cashier handed her a large bill and told her she didn't have any smaller bills. When my wife called me and told me the story I immediately felt the Holy Spirit tell me that it wasn't an accident, it was planned. I told my wife what the Lord had told me and we agreed to give our friend that large bill. Why? I don't know, I just know that God wanted her to have it and I wasn't going to ignore Him! The same thing happened a while back when I went to the gas station. For some reason my pump wouldn't accept my debit card, so I went to a station down the street. I bought my gas, went inside and got some gum and an energy drink. On my way out a guy on a really nice Honda 1800 was getting gas. I stopped and talked to him about his bike and before I left told him he had a great bike, that I hoped he had a great day and God bless him. That guy smiled from ear to ear and looked like it lifted his spirits to talk to me. Is it a coincidence that my card didn't work at one gas station and worked perfectly fine at a station 3 miles away? I think not!!!
The Holy Spirit spoke to my heart just yesterday and told me that He is always with me. There's no mistakes, nothing that He isn't involved in in our lives if we believe in Him. From every turn in the road, to our route to work, where we buy our gas, who we speak to during the day and every event that makes up our day. Remember next time you have a minor inconvenience that it could be God's way of pointing you in a different direction for your safety or for you to show His love to another person. Remember He's interested in every detail of our lives because He LOVES us!
Psalm 37:23(NLT) The LORD directs the steps of the godly.He delights in every detail of their lives.
