The Oak and the Acorn

 The Oak and the Acorn

So many times we see that God has something big for us but miss how He wants to bring it into our lives.
We are expecting the Oak tree but God gives us the acorn. So we chuck out or ignore the acorn because it doesn’t fit what we expected. This leads to our missing out on what God intended for us.
Be faithful with the small and the big will come.

Luke 16:10 He who is faithful in what is least is faithful also in much; and he who is unjust in what is least is unjust also in much.

Kendall where he was asked this question, “After 70 years in ministry what would be your advice to a young R.T. Kendall?”  His answer was that though he himself has many degrees he would not recommend to young ministers to go to seminary.  He mentioned Acts 4:13. His recommendation was to do 2 things.  Pray a lot and know your Bible. He said that God wants us to know 2 things, His Word and His ways. He pointed out that how we know His ways or anyone’s ways is to spend time with them. This is not the first time that Acts 4:13 has jumped out to me. This time I ask myself the question do unbelievers know that I have been with Jesus?  The they that realized in Acts 4:13 wasn’t the church but unbelievers....
