Sailboat Meditation: Day Twenty-four

Scripture:
Focus Scripture:
The kingdom of heaven is like a mustard seed that someone took and sowed in his field; it is the smallest of all seeds, but when it is grown it is the greatest of shrubs. (Matthew 13:31-32)
Listening to God:
You tend to despise small things. This is a mistake. The idea that nothing is worth anything unless it is big is one of the Adversary’s lies. This false idea keeps you discouraged and hampers my ability to work through you. When you engage faithfully in the small things I call you to do, I use them for my larger purposes. A word or two spoken at my urging can change a person’s life. A small gift of time or attention can rescue someone from hopelessness. You may not always see the results, but trust me to use your small faithfulnesses to bring in my kingdom.

Lord, when I feel small help me to remember the mustard seed. Help me to remember that in your hands no life or effort is small, but only a new beginning of something bigger, brighter, better than I could ever imagine – when the seed is in your hands. Lord, I give you my seed. in your hands it is enough. Amen.
