BE THANKFUL FOR SMALL BEGININGS

" Do not despise this small beginning, for the eyes of the Lord rejoice to see the work begin" Zechariah 4.10 Living Bible. What is wrong with being a small fish in a big pond or a big fish in a small pond? if you follow secular beliefs, there is every thing wrong. And so everyone is put under pressure to be a big fish in a big pond. Ponder! If you have ever seen the beauty of the underwater where all of these small creatures and plants with glorious breathtaking colour are thriving beautifully with the big "guys' - the sharks, whales and dolphins. why is scuba diving - an underwater activity such a sought after sport?

It is to behold the unity of the small and big working together to achieve the dazzling beauty of  the underworld. The scriptures teaches that we should be content with the measure of influence that God has given us in the various phases of our lives and not be in comparison or competition with others. Paul aptly put it  " I planted, Apollos watered but God gave the increase" I Corinthians3.6NKJV. So wherever you are today, you are just as important to the whole earth as the next person. Dazzle for God in that moment of your life. " But as God has distributed to each one, as the Lord has called each one, so let him walk" I Corinthians 7.17NKJV
