Can You Be Trusted With The Little Things? | Guided Prayers

Find a quiet place to get away with God today.

Would you take sixty seconds and praise him for who he is and who you've seen him to be?

Enter his gates with thanksgiving wherever you are at in this moment, and his courts with praise.

Whoever can be trusted with very little can also be trusted with much.

Sometimes we think obedience is only about major life decisions, but often God works through everyday faithfulness.

The small acts of obedience, the quiet yeses that no one else sees matter deeply to him.

Faithfulness in little things shapes who we become.

Consider the ordinary parts of your day.

Is there a place where God is inviting you to be more faithful?

Ask him to help you value small acts of obedience and not overlook their significance.

Invite him to shape your character through daily faithfulness.

Maybe start with this question.

Say, God, where do you want me to be faithful today?

And then listen for his response.

Let your mind wander where he leads and show you an area you can grow in faithfulness this week.

Maybe someone who serves at church that you've noticed, someone in your workplace, or your regular catchier at the grocery store, your favorite barista, the full-time mother next door with toddlers, or the janitor in your building.

Wait for a few seconds until someone's face comes to your mind.

They don't need to be a believer, but someone who is practicing faithfulness in thankless or unseen ways.

Take forty-five seconds and pray for them today.

Father, thank you that faithfulness moves you.

Help us honor you in the small things this week.

Amen.
