I am frequently anxious about many things and lately my devotionals and bible verses have been targeting that weakness. All the standard verses such as "Don't let your hearts be troubled. Trust in God, and trust also in me" John 14:1 (NLT) have been popping up recently.
Yesterday, we went to Palo Alto's main street to do some shopping and walking around. I was hungry, no shock there, and I had been craving chocolate cake all morning. I figured better to buy one slice of cake than make a whole cake that I eat in a weekend. But as I ordered my sandwich, I decided no, no cake right now. I got my order to go, because hubbie was on a mission to leave.
We got to our car and hungering for a bite I open the container and low and behold, you guessed it, next to my sandwich is a piece of chocolate cake! I couldn't believe it. Did the guy behind the counter think i was cute, did they mess up an order? I thought, God, are you telling me something. I believe the latter. God sometimes speaks in large events, situations or like people; a pastor's sermon. But yesterday, God spoke to me through a piece of chocolate cake, letting me know that he provides all my needs and even some of my wants. He loves me and is taking care of me.
