Small things add up to large things. Think about it: 100 small pennies add up to $1. 100 small dollars add up to $100. Ten $100 bills add up to $1,000. On and on we could go, but I think you get the point!
It is the same way in churches: Small things add up to large impact. Paul said it this way in 1 Corinthians 12:12, “The body is a unit, though it is made up of many parts; and though all its parts are many, they form one body. So it is with Christ.” In the Kingdom of God, when small things are joined together, big impact occurs! When you meet together in your small group, big things are happening. When you meet together in your small team of ministry, big things are happening.
This week I was reminded of the big impact small things make. At my request, Joseph Matcha sent me a detailed list of some of the needs the 92 India Oprhans have: Soap for a month ($125). Oil for a month ($14). Tooth Paste for a month ($82). Tooth Brushes ($42). Underwear for 92 children ($45). Shampoo for a month ($82).
For $390 all the basic needs of the 92 children could be met! And for $303 per month the needs of the 92 children could CONTINUE being met (soap, oil, tooth paste, shampoo)! Talk about small things making a large impact!!!
It has been said that as the church grows larger (in number), she must also grow smaller (in group organization). Remember, small things do indeed add up to large impact! Together, we make a difference through our giving and our serving!
Thank you for making a BIG impact,
Jeff Powell
