It didn’t happen in church. It didn’t come through a sermon. It was not the big life changing prayer or the dramatic breakthrough moment. Although I equally find God in these big moments, but most times I find him in the smaller things.
I find him in the way the sunlight hits the mirror as I stand looking at myself, hands in warm water, washing my face before bed. Because there was a time I couldn’t imagine having all that I have today.
I feel him in the silence after a long day when the world finally gets quiet. I feel him in the tiny hand reaching for my face every morning. I find him in the unexpected laughter, in the deep exhale after making it through another Monday.
I used to think Faith was this big, powerful, all consuming fire that would show up and light my life in command. But recently, I’ve learned that God doesn’t always roar. Sometimes, He whispers. And those whispers show up in small, sacred moments we rush past. We just have to listen.
Like folding laundry with a heart of gratitude instead of resentment. Or finally sitting down with my journal and being honest with myself. Or talking to him out loud while I drive – just rambling. No structure, no filter, just some real conversation. That too is faith.
It’s not just in the bible studies or the perfect devotional. It’s in the way I choose peace over panic. The way I believe something bigger and better is coming even when everything in me wants to spiral. You know, just like it says in Jeremiah 29:11.
God isn’t just in holy places. He’s in that hallway. In the kitchen. In the mess. In the routine. He’s in our laughter. In our tears. In our quiet life that doesn’t always look instagram-worthy but is still deeply, intentionally, divinely held. He is everywhere we want him to be. That’s why he’s omnipresent.
Faith, for me, isn’t just about the mountain. It’s equally about the walks. the little steps. The ordinary grace.
And if I slow down enough to notice, I see him everywhere. Even here. Even now.
What does Faith mean to you?
One day at a time

Such an inspirational post and I can absolutely relate. While we search for the “big” things, absolute beauty lies in the little things. Such as with faith. God is omnipotent – simple everywhere. Even in the beauty of “little” everyday experiences.
