IT'S O.K. TO START SMALL

IT’S O.K. TO START SMALL

For most people who live in industrialized nations, navigating daily tasks would seem quite difficult without the use of motor vehicles.  Over the passage of time, they have proven to be much more than a convenience.  Although the use of fossil fuels is a contemporary challenge to maintaining a healthy global environment, automobiles have benefited us in ways that are incalculable.

But this wasn’t always the case.  History records that the very first “horseless carriage” was built way back in 1769 by a Frenchman named Nicholas-Joseph Cugnot.  It was a gigantic three-wheeled, steam-powered carriage, which traveled along at the ‘lightning fast speed’ of one kilometer per hour.

At that time, most people could not perceive any benefit in Cugnot’s horseless carriage.  It was extremely expensive, terribly noisy, and so slow that it couldn’t even match the pace of the most worn out horse. Nevertheless, that first horseless carriage was the seed invention of a transportation revolution.

The Word of God challenges us with a question that is entirely apropos: “Who has despised THE DAY OF SMALL THINGS?” (Zechariah 4:10, NKJV)

Sometimes we simply need to remind ourselves that it’s alright to start out small.  And though our ideas or visions may seem worthless or absurd to onlookers, just wait!  Our GOD, the dispenser of “witty inventions,” is simply waiting to see if we have sufficient courage to speak (and take action on) the Word of faith which mobilizes our dreams, our visions and our future. (Proverbs 8:12 – Romans 10:17 – Hebrews 11:3)

My friend, get up, get moving and join in a PRODUCTIVE PARTNERSHIP with the KING OF KINGS!

Sisters and brothers, be continually blessed, and please (above all else) MAKE SURE YOU ARE READY TO MEET OUR SOON COMING KING. Maranatha!
