Little Things

There are so many things we should take to God for His guidance and protection. In actuality, we should take everything to Him. Whenever I lose something, I ask God to help. I know that with God’s help, the item will soon “turn up.” But because there are so many little things, we shouldn’t spend much of our time, or of God’s time, on these items. When I lose something, I thank God for showing me the place to look, and then I move on to another topic. This is one of those quick check-in communications with God. He always comes through.

Go to God for the little things, but don’t spend very much time on the little things. After all: 1. These are little things 2. He’s going to come through. 3. If you keep praying about it, your unbelief is showing. 4. The priority is to spend more time with God on the big things.

If you waste your time in long prayer about little items, you will never have time to take the big things to God. You will never have time to do big things for God, because you are stuck on the little things. So be faithful to the little things, but when they are done, move on to the big things. Pray a little bit about the little things, but pray a lot about the big things.
