Obedience

A mother was about to take up leadership position for a bible study group when she found out that her 6 year old son had problems adapting to the school system. Torn between wanting to serve and her duty as a mother to spend more time with her son, she stumbled upon this verse taken from Matthew 6 :33 - "But seek ye first the kingdom of God and His righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you. "

" All these things" here meant the cause of our worries, our needs. The Word of God became "Rhema" (The Word of God for her) to her and she made the decision to obey God and said yes to head the bible study group. The week after her decision, the teacher of her son spoke to her and told her that her boy was so different now, so easy to get along with his peer group. The teacher asked what did she(the mother) do that changed her son, and she replied.. "nothing"

But you know what? She did something. She obeyed God, she put God first and God took care of her situation. :)
