The Acorn

Have you ever considered the acorn? It's so small. It doesn't amount to much when you look at it. But consider this:

The acorn will grow into a large tree that will provide shade to the hot.
The acorn will grow into a large tree that will provide homes for squirrels, birds, and various bugs.
The acorn will grow into a large tree that absorb carbon dioxide that is dangerous for us to breath.
The acorn will grow into a large tree that will produce oxygen that we need to breath.
The small acorn will grow into a large and benefical tree.

What small thing are you not doing because you don't think you'll matter? Are you giving nothing because your dollar is too small? Are you doing nothing because your effort is too little? Do you think you are too small to matter?

Consider the acorn. It is small but makes a big difference. Why not do something small today...and let God make it Big.

No. I ain't doing nothing. Are acorns edible for people other than Ewell Gibbons?

What a great lesson that God desires to take our smallness and make it big in His Kingdom!
