Psalm 5:12 (Nkjv) For You, O Lord, will bless the righteous; With favor You will surround him as with a a shield.
God never fails to amaze me with His goodness and kindness especially in the little things that matter to us. You see God knows us very well and what matters to us also matters to Him, and scripture tells us He cares about us. Let me give you an example.
The other day I bought bedroom curtains, put them up and made new cushions to match but now our picture didn't match so I thought we'd wait to buy another one. Next day we were driving along when I saw a picture leaning on a garden wall that someone was giving away. We went for our walk, came back the same way and it was still there so stopped to look at it. It was a perfect match for our new decor - how amazing was that! I hadn't even asked the Lord for a new picture, He just provided me with one out of the blue. It was the favour of God, being at the right place at the right time and He knows I enjoy recycled as much as new.😊
I'm sure you have stories like that too but I wanted to encourage us all to remember God cares, He knows us really well and He just wants to bless us because we're His sons and daughters. He's our loving Father, our Dad, and He's not only made us righteous but He's promised to surround us with His favour as well.
We may not always recognise God's favour at work but it's lovely when we do.😊
Thank you Father for all your loving kindness to us. Amen.
