God works powerfully through small, unnoticed beginnings; our efforts and prayers matter because His presence transforms the ordinary into something eternally significant.
Friends, if we had coffee together this morning and you told me you felt small, overmatched, or unnoticed, I’d nod and say, “You’re in good company.” Jesus often started with small things—a seed in the palm of a hand, a pinch of yeast tucked into dough, a field under a wide sky. He meets us in ...read more
