Tiny Acorns: The Power of Small Beginnings #rttbros #nightlight Scripture: "For who hath despised the day of small things?" - Zechariah 4:10 (KJV) Devotion: In our fast-paced world, we often hear rallying cries like "go big or go home," pushing us towards grand gestures and monumental efforts. Yet, the wisdom of Scripture and life experience teaches us a different lesson: true growth and lasting change often begin with the smallest of steps. The prophet Zechariah reminds us not to despise "the day of small things." This verse speaks to the heart of how God works in our lives and in the world around us. He doesn't always move in earthquakes and fire, but often in the gentle whisper of daily obedience and tiny acts of faith. Consider the mighty oak tree. It doesn't spring forth fully grown, but begins as a tiny acorn, slowly pushing its way through the soil. Day by day, year by year, it grows stronger and taller, its roots deepening and its branches spreading. This is the pattern of true, lasting growth in our spiritual lives as well. When we seek to develop discipline and rigor, we must resist the temptation to make sweeping changes overnight. Instead, we should focus on taking small, consistent steps in the right direction. Perhaps it's setting aside five minutes each morning for prayer, or memorizing one Bible verse a week. These may seem insignificant at first, but over time, they build a strong foundation of faith and character. The Apostle Paul understood this principle well. He exhorted the Galatians, "And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not" (Galatians 6:9, KJV). The harvest of a disciplined life doesn't come instantly, but through patient, persistent effort. As you go about your day, remember that every small act of obedience, every tiny step of faith, matters to God. He sees your efforts and is pleased by your faithfulness in the little things. For it is in these small beginnings that He plants the seeds of mighty works to come. Let us, therefore, embrace the power of small beginnings, knowing that in God's economy, nothing is truly small when done in faith and love. May we be found faithful in the little things, trusting that He who began a good work in us will carry it on to completion.
