IT'S O.K. TO START SMALL

IT’S O.K. TO START SMALL

 For the people who live in more industrialized nations, navigating daily tasks might seem somewhat challenging 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 incalculable ways.

 But that 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 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 appear to be worthless or irrelevant 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)  Speak!

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