I literally don't know the last time I bought laundry detergent.
And I do laundry multiple times a week.
Every time I go to use it, I keep thinking I'm reaching the end. But, always to my surprise, the measuring cup fills without any reservation.
There's no logical explanation as to why I haven't had to buy laundry detergent in the last little while.
But, there is a spiritual one.
I contribute 10% of all of my earnings to my church. It is something I have been asked to do, and I do so willing. As a result, I have been blessed immensely. Not blessed in that I wear only the most stylish clothes or go on frequent, lavish vacations, but blessed in smaller, simpler ways.
And there is no doubt it is a blessing from paying my tithing.
I am currently dealing with a baby that adores spitting up. I swear she is trying to make it into an olympic event. Between the two of us, we go through at least 5 wardrobe changes a day. I used to do laundry once a week. Those days are long gone.
I'm thankful for the little things in life, like a seemingly limitless supply of laundry detergent, that help remind me that God is real. He loves me. And He blesses me even in the most mundane ways.
I love this posting. Reminds me to look at our smallest blessings. Enjoy your week!
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely message. Yes, I feel blessed in all the little ways that add up, too.
ReplyDeleteHeavenly Father definitely has a way of taking care of the little things, just as much as the big things.
ReplyDeleteI remember those spit-up days! They will pass before you know it. Smooch on your little ones while you can. You are in a hard, but beautiful phase of life!
