God of little things

The Biblical text of Naaman (2 Kings 5: 1-15) and his cure at the hands of the prophet Elisha is a good lesson in understanding our God, our God who is in little and small things... not always the grandiose and solemn things that we would love to associate Him with. To begin with, it was the little slave girl who informs Naaman about the prophet in Israel. It was the little thing that Naaman had to do, to get cured - go bathe in Jordan (nothing great or grand about it at all).  Then it was the 'little man, Naaman's servant, who interrupts Naaman before he totally rebuffs Elisha's instructions.  Perhaps it was also Naaman's little faith that he could get cured that brought him to Israel. However, a confluence, a harmonious blending of all these little things brought about something grand and great.

Silly of us to see and applaud the final miracle but not recognise God in the little things that led to this final change.
