Spare Some Change?

I noticed something today.
How people will buy something that costs $4.59 and hand the clerk a $5 bill.
Or, simular things.

How do we know that we'll get our change back?
Sure, .41 cents doesn't really seem like much of a risk
But what if you buy something for $10 with a $100 bill?
That would be a little different.
When you give the money to the clerk, you trust that he's going to give you the change in return.
It's how it goes. If not, it's illegal.

So, maybe I just see things in a spiritual way
But, as I watched this happen for about the millionth time today, I saw it in a different light.
The clerk is God, the money is your problems, and the change is just that, change.

When you give God your problems, you can trust He's going to give you change in return.

Simple as that.
All you have to do is get over yourself, surrender to the One who gave you the breath in your lungs and put the stars in the sky and trust that He'll do what He does every time.

It might not be easy at first, it might hurt a little bit, but just like the clerk gives you change, God will help you change and be with you through it.

It's the best thing you could do for yourself.

Trust me,
Trust God.
It's worth it.
