Hello, beautiful friends!
Have you ever had a simple hunch—something so small you almost dismissed it because you thought, “Oh, someone else will probably handle that”? It’s wild how often that happens… and even wilder what unfolds when we actually follow the whisper within.
I’ve read inspiring stories in books where authors share that they had a simple nudge—something so unobtrusive, yet when they obeyed, a blessing was waiting right on the other side.
That happened to me recently. I felt a little nudge: to bring refreshments for our kids’ basketball team. Yes, usually another parent does this (shoutout to that amazing mom who does it so faithfully). My mind immediately said, She’s got this covered—I don’t need to. But the gentle whisper was stronger than my doubts. So I listened—and brought them.
When practice day arrived, the mom who usually brings snacks did not. Another parent brought just a handful—not nearly enough for all the kids. But the refreshments I brought? Exactly what was needed to make sure every child had something to sip and enjoy.
Friends, it was perfect timing. That nudge turned into a moment of service—and joy.
I truly believe God speaks to us in these precious, subtle ways. The Bible reminds us that obedience is better than sacrifice (1 Samuel 15:22). This moment—so small, so simple—became my way of obeying and blessing others.
Before, I used to say, I’ll help when I can. But talk doesn’t fill water bottles or hand out drinks. Obedience does. And that day, God spoke—so I listened—and the kids were served.
So, next time you hear a little whisper, don’t brush it off. It may seem too small or too ordinary… but it might just be the doorway to something wonderful.
Thanks for stopping by today. Stay tuned to my blog for more moments of inspiration. And remember:
Don’t let anyone steal your joy!
