The LORD directs the steps of the godly. He delights in every detail of their lives. ~ Psalm 37:23

I think God smiled at me.
When I pulled into the parking lot yesterday and the best spot opened up.

I think God smiled at me (and her too).
When my Mom had a moment of clarity and Alzheimer’s was a distant memory as we laughed and talked, shared cooking secrets and even sang songs together.

I think God smiled at me.
When I asked the mechanic, “How much?” and he said, “No charge everything was under warranty.”

I think God smiles at us every day.
Often we are unaware of His behind the scenes efforts. Covert operations are underway around the clock in the spirit realm; “Operation Work it Out for Their Good,” is at work as you’re reading this. I believe God smiles upon our health and what was just a small headache (that you rebuked) could have been a massive brain hemorrhage that He simply smiled at and healed. He most likely smiled (in a fun-loving way) at my last temper-tantrum or even at my past pity-party with Ben & Jerry; because He was looking at the big picture and knew I’d be okay.

I think God smiles all the time.
I wish we could all be more like Him in that sense.
Consider His goodness,
then consider His love.
Consider His compassion,
then consider His creativity.
Consider His provisions,
then consider His grace.

The next time God smiles at you make sure you’re smiling back. Because God delights in the smallest details of your life.
