VALUE THE LITTLE 🤝
Colossians 4:2
Devote yourselves to prayer with an alert mind and a thankful heart. (NLT)
Agnes couldn’t buy herself a new shoe for work so that she was sad. But, one day, a beggar who had no legs approached her saying, it was because of his condition that he couldn’t work. From that moment, Agnes gave thanks to the Lord for her legs (life) and old shoes. Similarly, Mike had only one shirt for which he complained bitterly, and because he thought God wasn’t listening, he opted to hang himself on a tree. On getting there, he saw a naked man who couldn’t afford to cover up, and the man pled to be given the shirt while thanking God in anticipation.
Beloved, “Does thou value what you have?” If yes or no! You’d better appreciate it and the giver (God) because the truth of the matter is that many of us are like Agnes and Mike. In that, we mostly get blinded to the fact that the invisible and seen benefits we enjoy daily are priceless gifts from God, or how much do you pay for the air you breathe? Not a dime! Whereas there are the rich who could afford anything yet are laid to premature rest. Oh! Many wished to see this day but are no more, not because they were sinners or deprived humans. But here we are, celebrating a glorious new month. Isn’t God worthy of our praises? (1 Thessalonians 5:16-26).
WHAT NOW?
As our text says, learn to be grateful to God and people while tarrying in prayer (Philippians 4:6). Cherish your existence and the little/bounty in your hands, because there is no work or reward in the grave. And while there is life; there is hope! (Ecclesiastes 9:4-10). Get Born Again!
