Meditate On
Do Not Despise Humble Beginnings
Do not despise these small beginnings, for the Lord
rejoices to see the work begin, to see the plumb line in Zerubbabel’s hand.
Zechariah 4:10, NLT
It’s interesting to see how God never despises the little
things.
When the boy brought his five loaves and two fish, the
disciple Andrew scoffed, condescendingly patted the boy on his head and said to
Jesus, “What are they among so many?”(John 6:8). In direct contrast, God did
not despise the boy’s small lunch.
My friend, don’t despise the little things that you have
right now. See them as your very own “five loaves and two fish” even when
people around you mock and belittle you. Learn to disregard such people and lay
your little before Jesus. While you and I have no power to multiply, Jesus
certainly does!
So whatever you are building right now in your career,
your ministry, or your business, don’t despise the day of small, humble and
seemingly insignificant beginnings. Involve Jesus and allow His provision of
favor, wisdom and power to multiply and grow the little things in your hands.
