There are small moments in my life when my eye rests an extra second on some small object. When I have ignored that "glance," later that same day I realize that I needed that very object for some small crisis.. Now, in my old (er) age, I have started queing up to the adventure of small details.
Today's morning reading included a small, quick notation that said, "And since the LORD had not said he would blot out the name of Israel from under heaven, he saved them by the hand of Jeroboan son of Jehoash." (2Kings 14:27) Now, the small detail is this: in verse 24 it states that Jeroboam II "did evil in the eyes of the LORD and did not turn away from any of the sins of Jeroboam son of Nebat, which he had caused Israel to commit."
Wow. There's hope there. Even an evil ruler can be used by God because God deemed it to be so.
Note to self: Let the LORD work in my life through any size detail that He wants to use. Que up!
