“Whoever is faithful in little is also faithful in much” (Luke 16:10).
Finding your mission does not require great immediate revelations, but faithfulness where God has placed you today. The simple tasks, the discreet duties, and the humble services of the early years are not a waste of time—they are training. It is in these seemingly small places that character is shaped and the heart is prepared. Those who learn to serve well in little are, without realizing it, being equipped for something greater.
It is in this process that the sublime Law of God and His beautiful commandments show their wisdom. Daily obedience in ordinary things builds, step by step, the path to the greater purpose. God reveals His plans to the obedient, and He never skips steps. Those who despise simple duties end up missing their very mission, because there is no shortcut to the calling—there is only the faithful path that passes through the common responsibilities that many reject.
Therefore, be faithful today. Do well what is before you now. Each act of obedience is a step on the ladder that leads to the place prepared by God. Whoever builds this ladder with perseverance discovers, at the right time, that they are exactly where the Father wanted them to be. Adapted from J. R. Miller. See you tomorrow, if the Lord allows.
Pray with me: Beloved Father, teach me to value the small duties that You place before me. May I not despise simple beginnings nor discreet tasks.
My God, help me to live in constant faithfulness, knowing that each step of obedience prepares something greater. Give me patience to grow in Your time and according to Your will.
Oh, beloved Lord, I thank You for every daily opportunity to serve You. Your beloved Son is my eternal Prince and Savior. Your mighty Law is the firm ladder that sustains my walk. Your commandments are the secure steps that lead me to the purpose You have prepared for me. I pray in the precious name of Jesus, amen.
