God of (sm)all things

I find it easy to pray to God for big things or if I'm in a crisis. Broken heart, financial problem, life threatening situation - sure.

It's often much more difficult to pray about the little things. The trivial things. The things, it may seem, that are too small for God or have little to do with him. Foolishness! If God is the God of the Universe, then He is Lord over that uni assignment, King over laundry loads, Master over all your hobbies. He's GOD. God of everything and I mean everything.

Today, I got a great mark back on an assignment from a couple of weeks ago. An assignment that was left kinda late and was handed in with barely any time to spare. But an assignment that I gave up to God anyway - confessing my bad time management, acknowledging my helplessness and claiming His strength. I am learning. To trust God with every aspect of my life and claim Him lord over everything. He has blessed me with so much and I can't believe He likes -and in fact, delights in - helping me, this dirty and broken person, and showering me with love and grace.

God is awesome. He really is my very caring and loving father in heaven. He corrects me and comforts me. He rules over me and rewards me. He teaches me and treasures me. He loves me and longs for me.
