Small to big

From now on every road you travel
Will take you to God.
Follow the Covenant signs;
Read the charted directions.
~ Psalm 25:10 (MSG)


Anyone who can be trusted in little matters can also be trusted in important matters. But anyone who is dishonest in little matters will be dishonest in important matters. ~ Luke 16:10 (CEV)

KEY IDEA:
Faithfulness in small matters is a great predictor of faithfulness in larger matters. So begin by paying attention to the small seemingly insignificant things.
PRAYER:
Lord, I get discouraged when I'm not given more responsibility or power. I know that I can do better than most people at handling the big things. I know that while I haven't done so well with a lot of the small things, if you give me a chance with the big stuff I'll really rise to the occasion. You have to give me the chance to prove myself. Lord, show me if there is something wrong with how I'm seeing all this. And set me on the right road. Amen.
