In June of this year, myself, my sister and one of our friends went to Norway to attend a summer camp called Refresh run by the YWAM team in Grimerud. We had an awesome week meeting people from all over the world, worshipping together and seeing the Norwegian countryside in summer!
The summer camp fell at a time which clearly marked the end of one season and the beginning of the next, so while we were there I spent a lot of time in the prayer room seeking the Lord and listening to what he was speaking over me. All of what I heard during these times or during the teachings or worship I recorded in a big notebook. This notebook was already packed with months worth of prophetic words, verses and notes from teaching, worship, bible reading, BRT – you name it. I recorded it all in this one notebook.
A couple of days after we got back from Grimerud I went to stay with my friend and as I was packing I could not find this notebook. I wasn’t too upset as I assumed it would turn up eventually but a couple of weeks passed and I had turned my flat upside down looking for it and I still couldn’t find it. It wasn’t a huge deal but I was sad to lose so much of what I wrote down from that special week in Norway.
Then, another week or so later, I was fasting for a few days and was reminded of some words a girl in Norway had spoken over me and was upset again to realise I had lost the specific words she spoke because they were in my notebook. Then, I heard the Lord speak to me and say; “Pray about it.”.
I had already prayed about it but I prayed again with faith the size of a mustard seed. Later that day I was helping my sister unpack in her new flat and she told me she had something of mine – it was the notebook!
God heard that prayer and I was able to read through my notes from Refresh and find the prophetic words I had written in there. He cares about these seemingly small things which mean a lot to us!

What seemingly small thing is on your mind today? Bring it to God in prayer, trusting that He sees and cares.
