Morning Devotional:
I enjoyed a pretty quiet weekend at home – one of the last I will have for a while, I’m afraid, as the fall season is usually a busy season of family obligations and for ministry for all of us here at Kinship Radio. On my lazy Saturday mornings, I enjoy sitting on the bench in my front yard, enjoying the morning sun and the gorgeous maple tree that has yet to turn its vibrant shade of bright red. At least, so I thought.
Last Saturday morning I noticed that down my street, my neighbors’ maple trees had all started to turn their fall colors – some had just a few leaves turning that bright red orange, some many more than others. But mine? Nothing, except for one leaf. Just one red leaf that honestly, I could barely see and almost missed. Just as I was thinking about how extremely odd this was, I heard that familiar little whisper say to me, “Beth, I see and know every detail, just like I see and know you.”
What can we learn from a leaf? It’s so easy to think we are so small and forgotten in God’s plan but we’re not. He sees us, He knows us, He’s aware of every detail of our lives. He knows every hair on our heads, right? Then I have to think He knows our struggles and concerns, all of it. You’re not forgotten, you’re not abandoned. He is not going to ignore you, and He won’t pass you by.
– Beth
