IT’S O.K. TO START
SMALL
For the people who
live in more industrialized nations, navigating daily tasks could 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 1 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 nag. Nevertheless, that first horseless
carriage was the seed invention of a transportation revolution.
The Word of God
challenges us with a relevant 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 might seem worthless or absurd to onlookers, just
wait! Our GOD, the dispenser of “witty inventions,” simply awaits our
decision to speak the Word of faith over 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 PRODUCTIVE
PARTNERSHIP with the KING
OF KINGS!
