Are You Faithful in the Small Things?

PRAY OVER THIS

“He who is faithful in what is least is faithful also in much; and he who is unjust in what is least is unjust also in much.”

Luke 16:10

 

PONDER THIS

Be faithful in the small things. Big things are made up of smaller things. One example is the ocean which is made up of many drops of water. And all of those drops of water are molecules. And all those molecules are atoms. Think of all the ages and ages of time. Time is made up of ages, but ages are made up of millenniums; and millenniums are made up of centuries; and centuries are made up of years; and years are made up of months; and months are made up of weeks, and weeks of days, and days of hours, and hours of minutes, and minutes of seconds, and seconds of milliseconds. Everything big is made up of something small.

That’s the way your life is. Your entire life is not just one or two big decisions; it is day by day. It is that honesty; it is that smile; it is that kindness; it is that warmth; it is that integrity. When you’re faithful in the little things, faithfulness in the big things follows.

Who do you know that is faithful in the small things?

Identify a moment or moments where you struggle to be faithful in something small.

PRACTICE THIS

Write down the small responsibilities you have in a day and consider how you could be faithful in those things.
