In my devotions today, I was reminded of how God takes care of everything. That includes hazy pink blossomed plum trees. Struggling spears of tulips leaves, pushing through the soil. Arrogant daffodils with their bright lemon yellow trumpet-like noses. Hatching chicks–with their built in beak hooks to help them break out of their opaque oval prison. Don’t those little miracles of creation show how much He cares?

This Good Friday–and it is Good for the terrible sacrifice the Holy One suffered for ME (and you) gives us eternal life when we believe and accept His gift. Can we do anything less than entrust our circumstances to Him–great and small? Like over-charges on my credit card, a possible lawsuit in my family, healing a family member’s broken heart–or on my mind today, my second-to-youngest grandie girl, little Em, who will have surgery today for a broken bone.

I can trust God to take care of the big and small. He’s big enough–and most of all, cares enough–even more than I can ever imagine. And that is Good.
