Are you old enough to remember when TV’s looked like this one in the picture? Me neither, LOL!! But seriously, you had to get up and walk to the TV to turn the knobs to control it. There were only 12 channels on the dial!! Wow things have changed.
Recently I decided to get rid of my old school TV because it was just taking up space. No one I knew wanted it, so I prayed a simple prayer: “Lord, please help me give this TV to someone who would really appreciate it.” I decided to put it on Craigslist, and a man called and wanted it (even though it had no remote)! After talking to him a bit, I told him he could have the TV for free, and he was really excited!
Next my husband and I made plans to meet this man at the church parking lot. This guy surprised me by saying, “I hope you don’t mind me asking, but are you a Christian?” I told him I was, and he said, “This is incredible! I gave my life to Christ 6 months ago, and God is proving to me how real He is! I’ve gotten ripped off on Craigslist before. People were dishonest, and I’d get home and the dang TV wouldn’t even work. I prayed and asked God to help me find a cheap, working TV! Now here you are giving me one!”
Needless to say, I was blown away! How cool is it that God connects people like this?! There really is nothing too small to pray about! He takes a small thing and makes a big blessing out of it! I challenge you to ask God, “Please help me to be a blessing today!” Then do what you can do and Almighty God will do what you can’t do!
Be a Blessing:
Proverbs 11:25 “The one who blesses others is abundantly blessed; those who help others are helped.”
Pray and watch God do what only He can do…then get your praise on:
Colossians 4:2 “Devote yourselves to prayer, being watchful and thankful.”
