It doesn't matter how much or how little you've been given by God--what matters is how you use the resources and blessings He's given you. If you're faithful with a small amount, God will trust you with even greater blessings.

The important thing to remember is who you are doing these things for, who is the commanding officer? It is the Lord Christ you are serving! Not the church, the organization, the human leader, even the people you are trying to help. They may or may not give you the appreciation you deserve, but do it for Jesus. He will never let you down. The service awards are coming! Work with all your heart for General Jesus and prepare yourself for a lot of exciting, eternal surprises the day Christ gives His awards.

God cares about how we handle the gifts and resources He gives us. Even those of us who are given just a small bit of talent are expected to use it well--and when God sees that we can manage small things faithfully, He will entrust us with more and more. He is faithful - a Christian perspectivehttp://biblegateway.com/passage/?search=1%20John+1:9&version=NIV2009-09-18T10:04:26-05:00
God has promised to forgive us when we come to him in repentance. Because He is a faithful God and true to His word, we need not ever doubt that He will hold to that promise when we seek forgiveness.

Where are the people you need going to come from? He's already getting them ready for you and you ready for them. How are you going to get over the huge obstacles that are in the way? The God who parts Red Seas is going to make the way for you. How can you possibly do this thing when you are so flawed, so inadequate, so ordinary? Since when is this about what you can do? With God's assignment always comes God's enabling! The Wound Is the Battle - #5866http://hutchcraft.com/a-word-with-you/your-hindrances/the-wound-is-the-battle-58662009-09-10T15:17:15-05:00
Don't let your sins pile up, unconfessed, uncleansed. As soon as you realize you've blown it, deal with it immediately, call it sin and bring it to the cross of Jesus.

You can retire from a career. You can retire from a company or an occupation, but you can't retire from the service of Jesus Christ! There are those who say, "Well, I've served my time. I've done my part. I'll just sit here and rest until Jesus comes for me." Listen, when you love the Lord Jesus, when you've surrendered your life to His leadership, you don't look for an opportunity to quit.

God's plan will not take you where His grace will not keep you. Maybe you can't see where the money would possibly come from to carry out what God is mandating, but God's Word teaches us that what God orders, God pays for!

This parable, in which servants are rewarded based on how well they managed the resources they were granted, illustrates the Biblical idea that how you make use of the talents and resources at your disposal is more important than how many resources you have.
