Today, I had a very common experience that made me realize God’s presence even in the little things. This may sound trite, but please bear with me.  I just recently purchased with my birthday money a headset for my Blackberry cell phone.  I purchased this to use when driving to keep myself and my little ones safe.  I have not owned this item for even a week and today I lost it.

You see, I was running errands in town, picking up somethings and then grabbing some chicken at lunch at a local gas station.  This is when I “misplaced” this new tiny toy.  I had already made it back to my mother in law’s 4 miles away before I realized it.  Therefore, I had to go all the way back to town to find the headset.  Tiny, small enough to place on your ear I was sure I’d never find it and if I did that it’d be crushed by either someone stepping on it or worse a car running over it.

A Similar Headset to Mine

However, on the way back to town I prayed, Lord help me find this headset I spent good money on it and I hate to have lost it so soon.  Making it to the gas station I pulled up and tried to park a ways from the exact place I had before so that I wouldn’t chance running over it myself.  I jumped out of my van, looked around and in less than 10 seconds spotted the headset.  I think I might have shouted.  I definitely praised God all the way back home.  Ladies, he’s with us even in the little things.
