--A TINY SEED, A TINY DEED / REACH OUT!--The Bible says, “Do not despise small beginnings, for the Lord rejoices to see the work begin!” --I see what others have done with their lives and before I even get started—I’m discouraged. 'What can I possibly do that God isn’t already doing through someone else?'Against a towering giant, a brook pebble seems futile. But God used it to topple Goliath. Compared to the tithes of the wealthy, a widow’s coins seem puny. But Jesus used them to inspire us all! Moses had a staff. David had a sling. Samson had a jawbone. Rahab had a string. Mary had some ointment. Dorcas had a needle. All were used by God. What do you have? Much more than you might think! God inhabits the tiny seed. He empowers the tiny deed! Never discount the smallness of your deeds! --Grace for the Moment/ML[We all have 'things' that we have but never use. In good condition, just stored up on a shelf. Or maybe in a closet. We see people with no food to eat, or money to pay their rent. Can't we, 'God's chosen few', help others, in Jesus Name. A neighbor may not have the money to pay rent, or no money to buy groceries. There are many people hurting on this planet, and we are here to help others. Jesus said, "Whoever gives a glass of cold water to a child, because he is My disciple, I tell you the truth he will certainly not lose his reward."(Matthew 10:42)~ Let's reach out and help those less fortunate, in the Name of Jesus. "Do unto others as you would have them do unto you."
Jesus said, "I am the way, the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me." [John 14:6]
