When God Smiles

The past few weeks I have been desperately wanting a pair of slippers to take to the hospital. I had been keeping my eye out but was not willing to spend the thirty-or-so dollars for a nice pair. I even cringed at spending ten dollars on a pair from Wal-Mart!
It just so happens that I was strolling through the slipper section at Kohls and what did I find but a pair of slippers. The last pair. Not only were they the last pair but they we my exact size AND, for the best part, they were only ONE DOLLAR and EIGHTY CENTS! I couldn't believe it!
It is in these moments when God smiles that I am reminded among the overwhelming amount of chaos there is someone who knows what I need. I know slippers are not a necessity but it was like finding a little post it note that said, "Katie everything is going to be ok-enjoy the slippers. Love, God." And it made me cry.

God takes care of the things most important to us at the time.
Next time it will be something else you need.
