It's through the little that God can do great things (:

Well, going Back-To-Basics in my relationship with God has been rewarding. Re-learning what I've learnt plus more (: What God can do through the little I have never ceases to amaze me (:

Luke 21:1-4 (The Widow's Offering)
As he looked up, Jesus saw the rich putting their gifts into the temple treasuary. He also sawa poor widow putting two very small copper coins. "I tell you the truth," he said, "this poor widow has put in more than all the others. All these people gave their gifts out of their wealth; but she out of her poverty put in all she had to live on."

Wow. That is sacrifice. Imagine if everyone were to be giving out of the little they had. She gave out of her poverty and that act of sacrifice meant so much more than worldly riches. I know, we've heard this a thousand times before during Sunday service. But ultimately, we are humans, we forget. Or at least sometimes it doesn't hit me that hard. Anyway, this got me thinking, what am I doing with what God has given to me? People like to count their worldly blessings, material possessions, gifts, talents, time but when will it be enough to serve God? "I'm not ready." "God doesn't want this little things I have." Are you sure? I mean, we're talking about the God who created all things (the heavens, the earth, the universe, you). But He isn't looking about what you can offer him through your riches, but what you would sacrifice in your poverty. I'm learning this now (: Through the little I have, I'm going to keep my eyes fixed on Christ instead of what I don't have or my insecurities/ fears and give out of the little I have. Having no time has been the reason I've been giving. But honestly, it's not that I've no time. Just that I don't make time.

"You build your life around what is important to you."

That holds true. Even if you don't like what you're doing, you still build your life around what is important to you. I'm not saying drop out of school and be a Pastor (unless you're really called to, but probably not now :/). But know that God has called you to be a certain place at a certain time for a certain reason. What's the reason? I'm not you so I don't know. Go find out for yourself! Haha.

Take risks! Have faith! And give out of the little! (:
