I read three devotionals this morning. One talked about being a light- a flicker or one that lights up a room. It talked about how even a small flame is strong enough to brighten a room. The second was about using our God-given gifts no matter how small and being responsible for making the best use of them. The third talked about when “little is much.” It gave the example of the widow who gave two mites.
Each of these three devotionals seemed to blend into one thought for me. I first thought of the song taught young children. “This little light of mine. I’m gonna let it shine. Hide it under a bushel? No!”
It only takes a simple, gifted smile to light up a room. Even if it is just a tiny flicker, let it shine! It could be just the thing needed to light up a heart. It may be “little but big” to someone else. It might only take a pie taken to a lonely person to light up their life. It might be a kind word to a disgruntled person which changes his heart. It could be laughter instead of anger that makes the difference.
My gifts may be small, but they can become Big!
