God Cares

God is so good to us.

He knows everything that we go through and gives the grace needed for whatever we face.  

Sometimes He shows His care for us in big ways.

But often we can feel His care the most in the little things.  

One of those ways happened last year.  

I had run out of face powder.  Tragic, I know.  

I know it’s vain, but I still like to put on a little makeup each day – even though I’m in the middle of nowhere.  It makes me feel more like myself. 

When we were in the city for monthly groceries, I decided to check a little shop that had beauty products.  I knew that it was highly unlikely as I’ve never seen lighter makeup here. 

As I approached the counter, I was warmly greeted by a young lady asking how she could help me.

Smiling I said, “Do you have any face powder?” 

“In YOUR color?!” She asked.

Even though I could hear the disbelief in her voice, I just smiled and said yes.  

She almost rolled her eyes and I could tell that, even though she was looking, she knew there wasn’t anything in MY color.  

Then slowly she pulled out a box.  She opened it and with a silent, shocked expression turned it for me to see.  

It was just my color!!! (Which is VERY light. Haha)

“Perfect!” I said. 

It truly was the perfect powder.  

Every time I looked at it I was reminded of God’s care for me.  

It was something so simple, so silly, yet God had someone accidentally order a wrong shade…just for me!  

Has God done that for you?  

My little friend who gave me a hug just when I needed it.
