Details

My awareness of God being in the details of my life has been heightened as of late.

Here are three examples of how I know God in the details of our lives, because those that love me are aware of me and my needs, down to the smallest of details.

First, my birthday surprise.

This is Michelle and I on our recent cruise to the Mexican Riviera. 


(We are probably the most confident pair of friends I know! Although Shaleen and Chanda rank high on the list as well. )

On my birthday morning I woke up and decided to go for a walk outside. When I opened my door I discovered this...

 


I knew it was Michelle because it says- "Happy Birthday Sexy Chick, Say Oh Yeah!"

 

It was one of my favorite birthday gifts because it was so personal. 


Second, another birthday surprise.

Last year I declared myself an artist. My brother got me an array of canvas to paint on. It was my other art oriented gift that surprised me. My dad got me a portable easel to paint on. 

 


My dad really does know me well. 

 

Third, my apartment was heart-attacked. When I walked into my apartment after the cruise, this is what I found. 

  
All over the kitchen, on walls, behind doors, in closets, on mirrors.  

 My favorites are these:

"Life, Bring it on! Life, bring it on!"

"Let me see those Biceps!"

 
 Today I took them all off and put them on my closet door in my bedroom. 
 

The culprits were my parents. It was a very timely surprise... in a moment I surely needed it. The comments they left on the hearts witnessed to me of the attention my parents pay to the details of my life. I must be a princess, because I am daughter of a queen!



 I am one lucky woman!
