Ask God about the small things – answers await you.
Hi, I’m Joni Eareckson Tada and some time ago I developed a terrible pressure sore on my rib. At night in bed, whenever I’d lay on my side, it caused pressure. And I could definitely see I was doing serious damage to my side. After I had surgery, I had to find a new position to sleep in. But I couldn’t imagine doing that. Everything I tried was so uncomfortable. Finally, I prayed and asked God to please, please show me how to sleep at night. And about a month later, through trial and error, and with a few extra pillows, I came upon a comfortable position. Yes, it was a small prayer request, but significant. It’s why Jeremiah 33 says, “Call to me and I will answer you and tell you great and unsearchable things you do not know.” I did not know I could sleep comfortably in a different way, but God knew. So, ask him about the small things you do not know – answers await you.
