Faithfulness in the Small Things

Week of July 11, 2025

“He who is faithful in what is least is faithful also in much; and he who is unjust in what is least is unjust also in much.” (Luke 16:10, NKJV)

While the world often celebrates the extraordinary moments, the grand achievements, the big numbers, the Kingdom of God places equal, if not greater value on the small, consistent acts of obedience that few may ever see.

In Luke 16:10, Jesus reminds us that faithfulness in the little things reveals the true measure of a person’s character. It’s easy to imagine ourselves standing firm in the miracle moments of our life, but the true testing ground of faith is often in the everyday, ordinary places of life.

It’s speaking kindness when it would be easier to be critical.

It’s honoring God in your home, your workplace, and in your conversations.

It’s showing up and remaining faithful in assignments that may never bring applause, but deeply matter to God.

If you look through the Bible, some of its greatest heroes were not the most talented, or most celebrated. They were simply faithful. Faithfulness is not about perfection, it’s about persistence. Ask God to help you be faithful in the small, unnoticed things. How you speak to a difficult person, how you approach your work, how you serve your family.

Faithfulness multiples. What seems small in your hands may have eternal impact in God’s hands.

“Lord, may my life reflect Your goodness and bring glory to Your name in the ordinary moments of my day.”

God Bless, Pastor Rick
