How do we know that God uses ordinary events for His purpose?

The narrative of Saul's search for lost donkeys serves as a compelling illustration of how God employs ordinary events to achieve His will. Despite Saul’s focus on the task at hand, it was God's intention that this search would culminate in a transformative encounter with Samuel. This teaches us that God’s providential hand is often present in our daily routines and challenges. In the same way that Saul’s seemingly trivial endeavor led to his anointing as king, we must remember that God can guide us through the mundane aspects of life to fulfill His purposes, urging us to remain open and attentive to His workings.
