Hamish will be 3 this weekend; and he still acts like a puppy. When he goes into the cloakroom/restroom a lot of the time he grabs the towel then runs away with it. He wants me to chase him. He does this with the kitchen towel as well. We can’t put the kitchen towel over the edge of the sink but it has to be way back from the edge in the middle of the counter and he still sometimes get it. I know it’s just to get my attention if he is bored.
"And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the saints." Ephesians 6:18
How wonderful we don’t have to do tricks or try to get God’s attention like some young kids or dogs do with us.
God is the greatest multi-tasker there is! His ‘desk’ will never get too busy; He will never feel over whelmed. Whatever happens or has happened combined probably wouldn’t take up a tenth of a millionth of God’s brain if He had one. As God makes all the brains, He is away above all knowledge and we can’t comprehend or ever will, what it is like as we aren’t or ever will be God! Don’t you wish people would stop trying to put God in a box?
Sorry I digress; my point is that God always has time for you. God wants you to come to Him with everything, as that means your thoughts are always on God.
Sometimes I used to fall into the trap of not wanting to bother God with something, after all He is God, and He doesn’t want to hear about ‘x’ as it’s too small. Wrong! I have found I don’t even think that now, as if I did, I know I would say it’s wrong. Sometimes I just wouldn’t even think to think that about something because it’s so small. Do you know what I mean? I only tend to bring small things to God if it unduly worries me or it’s something pressing, or for someone else.
When we realise that God is waiting for us to talk to Him 24/7 and that nothing is too small, then we start understanding the kind of relationship God wants with us. Still not convinced about small things? 1 Thessalonians 5:17 “pray without ceasing.”
It’s not the fact that the problem is small or big, it’s that God wants continual prayer from us.
When we meditate on the bible and pray without ceasing, our thoughts, attitudes, how we look at situations change. We start to see it from a heavenly perspective. We are told to use "all kinds of prayers." Sometimes that can be a one liner, non verbal to God over something minor. “On all occasions” sometimes that can be funny, or sad or not that serious in the grand scheme of things. We usually bring the big things to God, but we sometimes aren't that good in bringing the other stuff to God.
So the next time you either think something is too tiny to bring to God or you don’t even think at the time about thinking of bringing something to God – remember God wants you to.
