A Blast of God's Movement

After having a long week and still waiting for so much from God, in a heartbeat God moved. I love it and at the same time it leaves me breathless.
Magnus and I have been praying about where to live - he has been hoping and praying for a specific place. He was supposed to move on Saturday within his complex with his roommate due to some renovations within the building. Friday, after stress, confusion, possible canceling of the move Saturday, things finally fell into place in that Magnus would be able to move into the place he wanted us both to live. And I will be able to move in when we get married.
I walked away from that situation with my head spinning - I mean, there's a whole new level of "realness" in that where Magnus is living is going to be "our" place. Wow.
But one thing that was deeply impressed on my heart is this - God knows our needs and is preparing the way. It's so easy for me to get caught on the details that God has NOT answered, but in his movement (before either of us were expecting it), he prepared the way for where we are to live. He's calling me, wooing me to himself in this and telling me gently (but firmly)"trust me. I have you and I know your needs." I could explain this in human terms, but honestly, this was God's movement. He knows our needs and decided to bless us with a reminder of his generous love and care.
Why then worry or be afraid? Our God is bigger.
