Today was the tenth day I have been home, except for a brief doctors appointment last week. I can only stand this isolation routine so long, and then I am ready to get out of the house. Yesterday, I started hearing, “Go to Hobby Lobby.” Then today, I hear the same thing all morning, “Go to Hobby Lobby.” So I decided, that this afternoon, I was going to Hobby Lobby.
I should have recognized that consistent voice as being from the Lord, and not from my “good ideas.”
After several rainy days, I decided I would go to Hobby Lobby and be obedient to the voice I had heard for two days. My first observation was the parking lot was full of cars, and the strip mall looked like it was Christmas due to so many people being out.
People are so weary of being inside that even on a rainy day they were out in hordes—wearing their masks. As I entered the store, buggies had been sanitized and everyone was social distancing. It actually felt somewhat normal.
I headed to the back of the store to the art supplies section, and to my surprise everything was 50% off. I needed various sizes of canvases and some paint. I was like a child in a candy store.
God knew Hobby Lobby had all the art supplies on sale!
That’s why the Holy Spirit was saying over and over, “Go to Hobby Lobby.” As I walked out of the store with my buggy full of canvases and paint, I felt like a little happy child.
I felt like I had received a happy kiss from Jesus.
Hearing His voice, and being able to obey, leads us to blessings!
When you hear something several times a day dropping into your mind and spirit, that may be the Lord speaking to you about something special.
He is the glorious, almighty God, creator, who is concerned about bringing forth His sovereign purposes throughout the earth, but He also cares about all the little details of your life.
He love us so much!! He even cared about my paints and canvases.
