The road of greatness often goes through the road of smallness. Scripture says, "Don't despise the day of small beginnings." When God has something great for you to do, He often starts with something small. During the years of doing what might be considered an insignificant task where it looks like no progress is being made, that's when you're getting prepared the most for the great things God has in store. You may feel like you're doing something right now that's insignificant. You're in the wilderness. You're not growing, and you've got bigger things in your heart. But you need to have a new perspective. When we show God we're faithful in the wilderness, He'll promote us to our promise land. Just because we might start out small does not mean we're going to end there. But we have to remain faithful even in the small things. When we're faithful with the tasks at hand, that's building character. Our roots are going down deep. We're developing strength, trust and confidence. You will only go as high as your roots go down deep. Don't despise the day of small beginnings. They lay the foundation for how far God is going to take you. You may feel like nothing is happening, but God is closely watching you. And at the right time, when God knows you're prepared, you're going to shoot up, and God is going to thrust you to a new level.
