Faithfulness in little things is a great thing Never belittle any task that the Lord has given you, because even things that may seem little are important to Him. You may think that what you’re doing now isn’t very important, but you just might be in school for something that’s more important than you realize. The Lord tests you first with little things, and the more He finds He can trust you with, the more He gives you. He knows that if you’ll do little things diligently, faithfully, and well, then He can trust you with big things. Jesus said, “He that is faithful in what is least is faithful also in much” (Luke 16:10). Little things are big in God’s eyes. God runs the whole world on small things, and He judges us by small things. The world and the entire universe and God’s kingdom are made up of small things. Without the small things, none of the big things would be here. Help us, Lord, to learn how important the little things are, and help us not to fail in even the least of them. Your Word says, “It is required in stewards, that a man be found faithful” (1 Corinthians 4:2)—full of faith and faithful at their tasks. Help us to be faithful in all things, small and great. —1 Corinthians 4:2 ESV - Moreover, it is required of stewards that they be found trustworthy. Colossians 3:23 ESV - Whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord and not for men. Titus 1:7-9 ESV - For an overseer, as God’s steward, must be above reproach. He must not be arrogant or quick-tempered or a drunkard or violent or greedy for gain, but hospitable, a lover of good, self-controlled, upright, holy, and disciplined. He must hold firm to the trustworthy word as taught, so that he may be able to give instruction in sound doctrine and also to rebuke those who contradict it.
