our smallest needs

before I formed you in the womb I knew you.
before you were born I dedicated you,
a prophet to the nations I appointed you.
Jeremiah 1:5
Before we were born, God knew all of our needs. He knows the smallest desires of our heart. The unspoken needs that we look over. He knows them! Do you realize this? Everything that goes on in your head, He knows. Everything good and bad..........He knows. You cannot hide anything from Him. I want to share something with you that happened here two weeks ago. It was 3am and Dylan woke me up. Drake vomited in the bed and needed me. So as all moms do, I ran to the room and got the situation in order. I cleaned Drake up and made sure he was alright and put him in the living room with Dylan. I pulled the sheets off the bed and put them to wash. I cleaned the mattress. Then I looked for my can of Lysol. I thought, if this is a virus I have to get a handle on it. Well, I could not find it. I looked for at least 20 minutes. I could picture in my head the places it could be and I turned up nothing. Well, by then I was wide awake, so I sat down at my computer and worked on my ETSY shop. About 6:30 I decided I needed a nap. By then Drake had made it back to my bed and Danielle was in it also. I made room and went to sleep only to be woken up a few minutes later by pushing and poking. I took my pillow and placed it at the foot of my bed and grabbed my quilt and covered up and went to sleep. When I woke up the can of LYSOL that I was looking for was placed by my pillow staring at me! NO ONE KNEW I WAS LOOKING FOR IT! EVERYONE WAS ASLEEP!!!! I do not, and I repeat do not care one bit if you think I am crazy!!!!!! I know someone from above placed that can by my pillow while I was asleep. God is SO good to us and He wants us to know that He is there to meet all of our needs. Spoken and UNSPOKEN! "Be still and know that I am God" (psalms 46:10) We are not here for our own needs, we are here to fulfill His and He is going to make it possible and give us all the tools. Even the smallest of our needs like my can of Lysol. May God bless all of you!
