The other day, something really cool happened. I was playing my Christian songs album on shuffle as I usually do while cleaning my apartment, and I was praying, “God, I really want to hear some Kari Jobe right now.” I passed it off thinking, “Its shuffle. It’s controlled by iTunes. There’s no way God can even control that.”

The particular song I was listening to lasted a few more minutes, and I had totally forgotten about that fleeting thought. But believe it or not, the next song that played was a Kari Jobe song!! I laughed and was completely shocked while it started to play.

Whether or not it was God or an iTunes shuffle algorithm, it was a really cool moment.

I pictured God laughing with me.

I think today, we are quick to assume that nothing is God’s doing. It’s all random. That is a terrible lie that we have bought into.

As I go through life, I need to (and I think we all need to) understand that God is moving around us and that He loves us no matter what we’ve done or what we think about ourselves as Christians. If we become blind to his miracles, we lose our sense of thankfulness.
