he cares for the sparrow and the speakers

so we left for a trip to point reyes national seashore with my parents last monday. the night before as i was packing i was trying to think of a way to make the car trip easier. usually you kids watch a movie on the little dvd player, but the volume on that thing stinks so we often pipe the sound through the car speakers. but that gives your dad and me big headaches.

now i realized that this wasn't a very big deal in the scheme of things and so it didn't occur to me to pray about it, but as i was praying that evening before bed i did think to ask Father if He would help me think of anything that i had forgotten -- cause i always forget something! - and if He would help me think of anything that would make the trip easier for all of us. instantly to my mind came a picture of our computer speakers and a thought that i should connect them to the dvd player. oh! i felt enlightened in that moment. i love that feeling.

so i tried it the next morning and it worked great! chas asked me how i came up with the idea and so i told him: God revealed it to me in a prayer. i said, "Chas, you are seeing a direct answer to a prayer." true story. i hope he remembers it.

cause even though speakers aren't important, I am important. and my prayers are important. and Father is always looking to watch over us and help us. and if speakers will help us than speakers it is. i love that about God.

i saw God today.
