The Power of Little Things
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.”—Matthew 25:21 (ESV)
The parable of the good and faithful servant in Matthew emphasizes the value of everyday good deeds. Sometimes we overlook small and powerful gestures by limiting our focus to grandiose expressions of faith, but in this parable, as well as in the life of Jesus, it is the little things that allow us to “enter into the joy of your master.”
Heavenly Father, guide me to the little things I can do right now that will have a big impact.
