Be True In The Little Things We Do

When we decide to live for God, we always think of many things. Helping others, donations ,charity, going for prayers, prayer meetings, preaching, singing etc etc.. But whatever we do, there will be an incompleteness felt inside often. We always find ourselves failing to be constant and stable in our approach, love and sincerity to the one who called us to be His always.

While we think deep into this, we find that, we often forgets the real reason behind all our good deeds, the real fact and the real love that comes from God.

'This is how God showed his love to us: He sent his only Son into the world to give us life through him. True love is God’s love for us, not our love for God. He sent his son as the way to take away our sins."  - 1John 4:9-10

Since God loves us so much, we are able to feel His love, and we love Him. When God wishes that we love Him lot and we live for Him, He never asks us to do big things but to be faithful to Him in the tiniest thing that we do. This tiniest thing should begin right from our within. From our inside heart we must be faithful. We must be true in this love towards God.

This true love flows this way, from Gods heart it overflows, we should open our heart for His love to flow into us straight to our inside spirit. This love should grow in us as strong faith builds up in us towards our dear Father, this will bear sincere fruits in us that it makes ourselves pure to ourselves. Once it fills us and cleanse us and builds in us, this love begins to overflow from us to our house, our partners, children and all others..Our family is getting filled with this love and deep faith. Then when we reach the society, our friends and peers will see God being glorified in us. Thus our God lives in each of us and His kingdom will be establish in this pinnacle of love.

Thus the foundation should be laid upon right from our inside. God wants us to be sincere to ourselves in loving Him. He asks us to be faithful right to the root of our heart and in all that we do.

“Whoever can be trusted with small things can also be trusted with big things. Whoever is dishonest in little things will be dishonest in big things too.”Luke 16:10

In this lenten time, let us build ourselves, let us fill ourselves in God and His love. Let us be faithful in the small things we do and then wait patiently for God to build us all to establish His Kingdom.

Do not think about doing great things, but try to be sincere and faithful right from our basic little things. Do not worry  that we are not able to make changes in this world or our society or even our family, but try to be the change that God wishes in ourselves. The rest will come in Gods plan.

Dear Father in Heaven, build us right from our inside, help us to fill ourselves with Your overflowing love, help us to open our hearts to You and be faithful right from our roots and in the little things we do. So we are pure in our love for You and towards our fellow beings for You are to be glorified in all of us. Amen.

“God doesn’t look at what people see. People judge by what is on the outside, but the Lord looks at the heart.” 1 Samuel 16:7

Let us be true and pure in heart for God.
