Also delight yourself in Yahweh, And he will give you the desires of your heart. Psalms 37:4 WEB
Many years ago I bought a graphics card for my computer with the newly released DVI (Digital Visual Interface) port. This had just come out and would allow you to connect the computer to a high definition television. Being intrigued by electronics and gadgets, and the thought of computer gaming on a television, I really wanted to try this.
To make this work, I needed a DVI to HDMI converter cable. At the time, this was cutting edge and I had never actually seen a cable like this, but I knew they existed. One morning before I set out to work, I was searching for the cable on the Internet. I found one for $40 but I decided not to buy it yet. It was not really a need, but just something that I wanted to play with.
My first client of the day was an insurance company. We arrived and while talking with the manager, he reached into his desk drawer and tossed a cable on the desk, unopened and still in the plastic package. Then he said:
'I bought this a while back, and I don't even know what it is, or why I bought it, but maybe you can use it.'
It was a brand new DVI to HDMI converter cable in an unopened package. He had bought it for me and did not even know it. I just laughed and thought that God is better to me than I am to myself.
Many times in my life I have been happily serving the Lord and suddenly something wonderful happened that I had not prayed about or even mentioned. Things that were too trivial to pray about, came to pass. I encourage you today: Get lost in the Lord's goodness. He is so Awesome in every way and He will take care of you. If it matters to you, it matters to Him.
Prayer: Father, I thank You and want to experience more of You in my life, outside of the church walls. I want to see You working in my life every day. In the name of Jesus Christ I pray.
