Little Things
I am believing God that 2009 will be the greatest year of ministry HPC has ever seen! A great year is made of great months–great months are the result of amazing weeks and days that are ultimately found in incredible moments. It is in our commitment to these little moments that we discover our destiny. In over a decade of ministry experience, I am learning everybody wants to do BIG things for God, but few are willing to do the LITTLE things for Him.
Small things can be a big deal. Take a tiny pebble, put it in your shoe and walk on it all day…it will shut down your entire world! Text your spouse in the middle of the day, “I miss you like crazy”…it will open up a whole new world! It’s amazing what a card, smile, compliment, lunch, or encouraging word can do. Can you think of a time when you overlooked something small and it cost you big-time?
Small things are a big deal to our Savior. Just ask the widow woman who put 2 pennies in the offering plate, or the servant who buried his 1 talent. Jesus said, “If you are faithful in the little things, I will make you ruler over many.” Don’t let small foxes spoil big vines of opportunity this year. Make a daily commitment of excellence to the little things, and you just may experience the best year of your life!
