The small things...

Something happen on Wednesday, that made me realize how much Heavenly Father pays attention even to the small things.  I had two appointments on Wednesday that I wasn't sure I was gonna be able to make.  Unfortunately forgot to add them both to my calendar and as soon as one was ending I had to be at the other.  I had an appointment to get my hair cut and colored, and I had an appointment to see the bishop.  It normally takes my beautician about 2 hours to cut a color my hair. My appointment was for 5 PM, and my appointment to see the Bishop was for 7:00 PM.  I had chosen not to take the 4:00 appointment with my beautician because I thought 5:00 would be better because I still had the work that day.  Fortunately for me my boss was on vacation this week and one of the other guys that I work with tell me to go ahead and take off even earlier than I needed to take off to make my appointment on time.  So I showed up about an hour before I was supposed to be there.  I walked in hoping she could take me early, and she just laughed.  Apparently the appointment before me had showed up early also and with the two of us having showed up early her last appointment of that day could come early also, and she would be able to leave to take care of her son who had just broken up with his girlfriend.

Now I know this doesn't seem like a huge deal to anyone else, but it just seems interesting to me that Heavenly Father who takes care of the big things, also takes care of the small things.  

All of that previous day and I was wondering how I was gonna get from one appointment to the next.  I knew I had to meet with the bishop, but I wasn't sure how I was gonna make it there on time.  Heavenly Father loves me so much that he just took care of one small and simple thing so I could make it where I needed to be. And by helping with that one small thing, me getting to leave early from work, he was able to take care of me making it to my appointment on time, and Linda, my hair stylist, was able to take care of her son.  I truly love how much Heavenly Father takes care of us even when we don't realize that he is taking care of us. 

It was just a small thing.  But it made me realize just how much Heavenly Father cares for each and every one of us.
