In today’s episode, I share a simple story—one quick trip to Marshalls to grab some vitamins that turned into something unexpectedly meaningful. What started as a casual errand became a moment of divine reflection on provision, surrender, and receiving God’s goodness… even when it doesn’t make sense.
We talk about how blessings don’t always come wrapped in clarity or logic—sometimes, they’re just sitting in our cart, unscanned, unexpected, and undeserved. But does that make them any less from God?
This episode is a reminder to not overthink the blessing, to pause and reflect, and to trust that God's provision often shows up in subtle, beautiful, and unexpected ways.
🔑 Key Takeaways:
- Every blessing doesn’t come with fireworks. Sometimes it’s small, quiet, and easy to miss.
- You don’t have to earn God’s favor. Grace isn’t about what you deserve—it’s about who God is.
- Control is an illusion; surrender is where peace lives.
- Being a good steward isn’t just about what you spend—but also what you receive and how you hold it.
📖 Scripture References:
- Matthew 6:8 — “Your Father knows what you need before you ask Him.” → Even before I noticed I was out of vitamins, God already made a way.
- James 1:17 — “Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the heavenly lights.” → Don’t question every gift. Receive it with gratitude.
- Proverbs 3:5-6 — “Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding.” → Stop trying to make everything make sense.
- 2 Corinthians 9:8 — “And God is able to bless you abundantly, so that in all things at all times… you will abound in every good work.” → He will supply. Unexpectedly and perfectly.
🧠 Reflect & Journal:
- Have I been rejecting blessings because they didn’t look the way I expected?
- What “unscanned vitamins” have shown up in my life recently?
- Where in my life am I overthinking provision or trying too hard to be in control?
- How can I practice surrender in small ways this week?
