Small Things...Friday

Devotional...7/5/13

“Who despises the day of small things?” 
 Zechariah 4:10a

     Most people in this world do not feel successful.  The vast majority of us are not rich, or famous, or powerful.  I never heard of you, and you never heard of me. 

    
   God does not want us to compare ourselves to anyone else.  He is concerned with you and me – each of us as unique individuals.  He is concerned that each of us reaches our full potential in Him.  He has given each of us special gifts totally unique to ourselves.  God can only accomplish what He would like you to do if you will do it.  No one else is you, or ever will be you, or can do exactly what you can do.

     



God does not want us to despise doing what we can accomplish for Him and His kingdom. He asks us to help our neighbors.  God measures our faithfulness in doing what we can to follow His wishes and in being who we are created to be in Him.

  1. And there-in lies our "success" - remaining faithful and doing God's will!

  2. Beautifully said! I love your point about reaching our full potential in Him.

    The picture of the pebbles is a great illustration of our togetherness, even with our differences.

    Thank you.
