Small beginnings
“For who hath despised the day of small things? for they shall rejoice, and shall see the plummet in the hand of Zerubbabel with those seven; they are the eyes of the LORD, which run to and fro through the whole earth.”Zechariah 4:10
Reflection
You look at your progress and think it's not much. God looks at the same progress and calls it a beginning. The Kingdom of God almost never starts big — it starts as a seed, as yeast, as a boy with five loaves. Don't despise your today because it seems small. What God begins, He makes grow.
Prayer
Lord, bless what little I have. Make it enough in Your hands. Amen.
Put it into practice
Identify a "small beginning" in your life and take one more step in it today, however small.
To reflect on
What small and good thing have you despised, thinking it makes no difference?
