What matters to me matters to Him

One of my favorite heroes of faith is Bill Johnson.  I often hear him say, "what matters to you matters to God".  I like that.  I like that God cares about every aspect of my life-even the tiny stuff.  He's not too busy to care about what I care about.  My husband and I wanted to paint our house green.  We went to the paint store and picked out a green and then a golden trim color.  It was a great thing that the guy at the counter suggested we only buy small tester paint cans just in the case we didn't like it.  Because we sure did take them home, test them, and absolutely not like them.  So on the way back to the paint store I was thinking about those words-what matters to me matters to Him.  I asked my husband if we could pray that God would help us find the perfect paint, of course he said yes, so we prayed together.  Our second time home we put on the paint that we felt sure was right this time-and it was!  We love the green-it is absolutely perfect.  The trim color was a little more yellow than I had wanted, but day by day I am getting used to it and I really like it too.  Thank You God for caring about what matters to me.

You'll have to ignore the blue tape for now.  We are not quite finished.  My husband says we can get a red door too! I have always wanted a red door.  We are thinking cranberry red would be a great addition of color.
