Looking for God's "Little" Gifts - by Susan Hatfield

When I see that first blossom or bud after a long, dreary, cold winter, I get so excited! It’s like getting a gift!  It tells me that spring is in on the way. It reminds me that there is hope, and the Lord is in control of everything.  It is so refreshing to know that He has a plan and He wants to give us good things.  Matthew 7:11 says, "If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children, how much more shall your Father which is in heaven give good things unto those who ask Him?" What an encouraging verse.

I am reminded that I need to look around at the little “gifts” that God has given me each and every day, know that He is in control, and relax in Him and enjoy His creation. He can take care of the little things and the big ones!
