Many folks don’t
think little towns have much going for them.
They are small, not
many folks, not much going on. The future can’t be bright for a little town
they say.
Some folks think the
same thing about little churches.
But while they have
some disadvantages, they also have advantages.
People are closer
knit. They are quicker to be compassionate. They rally together. They fight
through adversity. They typical kinder, simpler and less quick to fall into bad
ways.
"For who has
despised the day of small things? Zechariah 4:10
I think the mistake
we make is by looking at what we don’t have rather than what we do
have.
Size isn’t the issue. Some of the most dynamic
things in the brotherhood come from small churches. A little town can do a lot
when it gets everyone on board. A small start doesn’t mean a little finish
(Mark 4:31-32).
God doesn’t expect
us to do give what we don’t have but he does expect us to do something with
what we do (2nd Cor 8:12)
Don’t think we are
too small to do something for God.
