Morning Devotional:
God Provides—Even the Small Stuff
We needed an extra bed. My dad was coming to visit for about a week, and as we prepared for his arrival, we realized we didn’t have a good place for him to sleep. My wife, on a whim, posted on Facebook asking if anyone had a bed they wanted to get rid of. And wouldn’t you know it? Someone had a bed frame, and someone else had a mattress.
It all seemed to be falling into place—until we got home and realized something crucial was missing. The screws.
That sent me on a mission. I had to research the frame, download the manual, find out what screws were needed, and head to the hardware store. Of course, the exact screws weren’t available, so I had to find the closest match and hope they’d work. After some trial and error—success! We had a fully functioning bed, just in time for my dad’s visit.
As I stood there looking at the finished bed, I couldn’t help but think about how God provides for our needs. Not always in the way we expect, and sometimes there’s a bit of work involved on our end, but He is faithful. Philippians 4:19 reminds us:
“And my God will meet all your needs according to the riches of his glory in Christ Jesus.”
In life, we often focus on God providing for our big needs—our health, our finances, our future—but sometimes, His faithfulness is just as evident in the little things. A bed for a visiting dad. The right screws to hold it together. A reminder that He sees us, He cares, and He is always working behind the scenes to provide exactly what we need, when we need it.
So the next time you find yourself searching for a solution—big or small—remember, God is already at work. He’s the ultimate provider, and His timing is always perfect.
