God’s Sticky-Notes
We also want to continue throughout the day
expressing gratefulness for the innumerable
manifestations of God’s grace.It’s as if God is placing sticky-notes in our lives
as daily reminders of His presence and provision.
They’re everywhere.
How alert and perceptive of them are you?
Are you a thankful observer of the
countless indications
of His provision,
His presence,
His kindness,
and His grace?C. J. Mahaney in Humility: True Greatness

Maybe it’s just the place I’m at in my life, but I see God is so many little things in my life these days. I think I take more joy in the things that take me by surprise, rather than the things I actively look for. I wonder if God appreciates? celebrates? that part of our character that searches Him out, or the part that is completely open/surrendered to Him more? Or maybe it depends on the individual….anyway, I love hearing from/seeing Him, either way.
I like your *hot pink Zyrtec* …. sometimes God’s reminders are obvious like that and sometimes they’re not.
Lord, make me ever mindful of your presence – bright or dull.
I have been trying to be more sensitive to this very thing, though the concept of the sticky notes was different and very clever. I have some hot pink hearts some one gave me. That would work.
I love this “God’s sticky notes” — I’m the type who needs them stuck to my nose so I can’t miss them
Thanks for sharing this excerpt and the reminder that life with our God is always full of grace-filled sticky notes. Blessings, Laurie
I call the sticky notes in my life “hugs from God”.
It does take a certain amount of being aware, for certain, otherwise my life just takes me along for the ride–
