Sparrows

Me: "God, will you take care of my kitty while we're gone? I don't even know if you care about kitties."

Him: "I notice even when one sparrow falls to the ground. I care."

Me: "Yeah, but even though you care, they still fall to the ground. It doesn't mean that bad things don't happen…"

Friend: "Hey, when do you guys leave?"

Me: "Tomorrow."

Friend: "How long will you be gone?"

Me: "A week."

Friend: "Oh. Can I stop by and play with your kitty while you're gone?"

Me: (stunned silence) "You are totally being God's voice in my life right now."
