Hi friends! I know I just posted a blog post late last night, but something so crazy happened to me today, and I just had to share. This may seem minor to you, but I love showing how God even cares about the small things in our lives. He’s in the details!!

So here’s what happened.

There’s this really cute makeup bag that I really wanted to purchase. It’s usually sold at Walgreens, but lately I haven’t been able to find it. It’s small, black, and says, “might be makeup, might be snacks.” It’s the perfect size! My mom has it, and I think it’s super cute because I love snacks lol.

So I did a Google search and aha! I was able to find it on Poshmark. I ordered it, and it came in great timing. A few days ago, I opened the box, and it turns out I received a navy blue makeup bag instead of black. Immediately, I assumed I must have ordered the wrong one and didn’t check the seller’s details, so I wasn’t worried about it at all. I decided to just use it anyway because it matches my blue cup perfectly!

Today, I received a notification from Poshmark to accept that I received the order. I logged onto the app, looked at the purchase details, and realized that I actually did order the black one. So I decided to message the seller about it, not expecting a refund or anything, I just wanted to see if there was a black one and possibly do an exchange. I took a few pictures of the item, sent them in, and waited for the seller’s response.

This is what I got messaged back:

Off rip, the seller assumed that I was not telling the truth and that I somehow already had this bag and was just showing a picture of one I owned. I was so appalled. She also pointed out that the bag was used. Which is true, because like I said earlier, I had been using it since it wasn’t that big of a deal to me.

I told her that I wasn’t trying to get anything out of her, but she continued to call me a liar. When I tell y’all I was so upset over this… I really was. Being accused of something you didn’t do is such a frustrating feeling!

I even told her that I was a Christian and that I know God sees all, so I wouldn’t lie over something like this. She then told me that she was a “true Christian” and said she was shocked that I was being so deceitful.

Guys, I was so upset and HOT! But then my mom was like, “It’s okay because God saw what happened, He knows the truth, and that’s all that matters.”

So I was sitting there, still feeling upset, trying to calm myself down and let it go. I kept replaying the conversation in my head, thinking about how unfair it felt to be misunderstood like that.

And then, almost immediately after the seller sent her last message accusing me again, I got a response to an email I had completely forgotten about.

Earlier today, when I was at work, I emailed a phone case company about an order that never arrived. I honestly wasn’t even upset about it!! I just wanted an update on when it would arrive and to get the tracking details. After I sent it, I didn’t think much more about it.

The phone case company apologized for the delay and said this at the end of their email:

Wait… did y’all see that?!

Out of everything they could have offered… it was another makeup bag. The very same type of item that this whole situation earlier revolved around. I had just been accused of lying over a makeup bag. I felt hurt, frustrated, and completely misunderstood. And then, right after that, here comes another company, responding with kindness and offering me a free makeup bag.

I read it out loud to my mom, and it hit us at the same time. It felt like God was saying, I saw what happened. Don’t worry about her anymore. He vindicated me and offered me something even better! The fact that it’s a cherry blossom makeup bag to begin with just wowed me because I’ve been obsessed with all things cherry blossoms lately. God is so intentional, y’all. 😭💗

It immediately made me think of Exodus 14:14: “The Lord will fight for you; you need only to be still.”

Because in that moment, there was nothing else I could do to prove myself to that seller. I had already explained the truth. I had already said what I needed to say. Continuing to go back and forth wouldn’t have changed her mind.

It reminded me that even when people get it wrong, God never does. He really will fight for you. You don’t always have to prove yourself, argue back, or be understood by everyone. Sometimes, you just have to be still and let Him handle it.

So friends, the takeaway here is simple, albeit powerful: God is in the details. He sees our hearts, He knows the truth, and He cares about even the little moments that frustrate or hurt us.

Sometimes life throws unfair situations our way, and we feel misunderstood or overlooked. But God is always watching, always faithful, and sometimes, He even turns the smallest moments into reminders of His love and care.

Keep trusting Him with the little things and the big things. Be still, let Him handle it, and watch how He shows up in ways you never expected. 💗🌸

Thanks for letting me share this with y’all today. I hope it reminds you that God’s attention to detail isn’t just in the big miracles, but in the tiny, everyday blessings too!

Thank you so much for reading.

Kindly,
