Faithful in the least
How often we think that God will break out and do some great
thing through us. We believe that God is equipping us for great extraordinary
work in the future. Our present experiences are never wasted moments. Yet in
our focus on some great, future work, we miss the present moment in which God
wants to glorify himself through us. Our thoughts of our future rob us of the
serendipities of God’s grace in this moment. We overlook the opportunity to
hold open a door, pick up a piece of dropped napkin, or to offer a smile
because we think that God’s great future work is our destiny. Saints through
the ages echo the Jesus’ refrain, “Whoever can be trusted with the little can
be trusted with much” (Luke 16:10). – Ron Friesen
