Dream Small

If you’re like me, your days are made up of a bunch of activities that don’t seem to make much of a difference in this world. They are smaller things that you may have to do every day, over and over again.

We generally dislike these jobs and don’t see much point in them. They are monotonous and sometimes hard. Boring. Not exciting.

But I’m here to defy what we think about those jobs/chores/whatever and state the obvious because the obvious becomes so obvious it’s not obvious anymore! These small things matter! These are the things that change the world.

The Christian life is a walk. It’s one step at a time. We all usually change one degree at a time, not the whole three hundred and sixty degrees all at once.

A small stone isn’t very useful by itself, but if you have a bunch you can build a wall. The little things we do each day are all part of life, and they help us reach the big goals that we have!

So don’t complain when you have to do those small things. Don’t complain when you get tired of doing the same thing over and over. Don’t stop trying to do those little things that make a difference in someone’s life. Those are the things that matter.

Oh, and one more thing. You may feel that you can’t do much to change the world. And that may be true if it was just you. But here’s the thing…this world has millions of Christians, and it’s all of us serving Christ together that makes the difference.

We can’t do a whole lot on our own. But we can be that one drop that makes the cup overflow.

There are two songs for this week…I hope you like them! I found them recently and thought they were pretty awesome.

Mountains – Jason Gray

Dream Small – Josh Wilson

And I have another book to recommend! You’ve probably heard of the author, David Platt. I love his sermons and his writing (even though I’m only at the beginning of the first book I’ve read that he wrote…lol)!

Radical Together: Unleashing the People of God for the Purpose of God
