Yesterday I went to the Coffin's house and to Gibson park for a spiritual retreat. First I took along my fishing gear and fished the Coffin's pond. Caught a blue gill and two small bass but was a little cold so decided to drive to Gibson park. At Gibson park I walked the trail around their big pond and noticed a few frogs, an osprey, some fish jumping, and due to the water being low I noticed deer and what looked like racoon tracks in the mud. This got me thinking about how small we all are in the big picture.
For some reason God has decided to put me in Salem, Iowa. In a small town where a lot of the world would probably not even think much of. But God sees a bigger picture and in the grand scheme of things none of us are very significant. And I think that is what makes our God such a big God, because even in our insignificant states God uses us in ginormous ways.
I don't know all that God has in store for me, but what I do know is that God will use me in spite of my smallness, in spite of my weakness, and in spite of my insignificance. For through my weakness God's mighty hand will be seen.
