“…the Lord was not in the wind…the Lord was not in the earthquake…the Lord was not in the fire…but…in…a still small voice.” Certainly, it must be admitted, whatever else our Lord was teaching His prophet, one thing was that, if not careful, we can miss God in the small things of life, while looking for Him in the bigger ones.
There used to be a worldly song entitled, Little Things Mean a Lot. If we fail to see God in the compassionate touch of a loved one, the beauty of a little flower, the smile of a child, or in a small get-well card from a friend, we have missed seeing our great God in these little things.
Remember, God came into the world in the form of a little baby. He hailed from a small town, and He pastored a little flock. When Jesus saw things like small fishes, the lilies of the field, and a little lad, He knew little is much when God is in it. Let’s be sure not to look for God in the wrong places.
Little things God is in are better than one big thing He is not.
