In our journey of faith, we often find ourselves reflecting on the love of Jesus and the willingness to endure suffering for the greater good, just as He did for us. As stated in Matthew 25:23, we are encouraged to be faithful and obedient in the small things, seeking God’s guidance to be good Christians every day.
I’ve personally felt that God has used my life as a case study to teach me biblical principles through both significant and seemingly insignificant daily experiences. I’m immensely grateful for these lessons, as they’ve shaped me into who I am today, and I continue to learn and grow in my faith.
One essential lesson I’ve learned is integrity, which extends even to mundane situations like shopping. It reminds me that we should be mindful of our actions in all aspects of life, as God’s teachings are not confined to the church but encompass our daily routines.
If you feel that God is calling you to be different, to be the person who works hand in hand with Him, then it’s time to start with the small things. Rebuke the devil by making choices that reflect your faith. Put the grocery cart back, be honest when you receive incorrect change, and respond to road rage with patience and kindness. These seemingly small actions demonstrate your commitment to living out your faith in your everyday life.
Remember the words of Matthew 25:23, “His master said to him, ‘Well done, good and faithful servant. You have been faithful over a little; I will set you over much. Enter into the joy of your master.'” By being faithful in the small things, we prepare ourselves for greater responsibilities in God’s kingdom and strengthen our relationship with Jesus.
