God Deserves the Credit

After sharing my news of becoming worship leader, I received so many kind words of encouragement. Many of you mentioned how happy you knew this news would make Mom. And I’m sure if you’ve followed my story much, you know how much I’ve longed to share this with her. I would be lying if I said I hadn’t shed tears longing to tell her.

The same day I received the news, I came across some very special photos. I hadn’t seen them in years and I forgot they existed. Some might call it coincidence, but I think God deserves more credit than that.

We were sharing an exciting moment in these pictures. I had just been named Junior Miss for our county, and I was crying tears of joy. I don’t know who snapped these pictures of her wiping my tears and embracing me, but I do know they had no idea in that moment what they would mean to me today.

As much as these do mean to me now, I know the day God wipes away all of our tears forevermore will be greater than anything we could ever imagine this side of Heaven.

I believe God is a God of the details. I am so thankful He is such a loving Father that He does gestures like this for his children. So I don’t know about you, but I want to keep my eyes open for His handiwork. Not matter how small or intricate it may seem, if God moves in my life, I don’t want to miss a single detail.
