Luke 16:10a (NLT), "If you are faithful in little things, you will be faithful in large ones."
Monday... Being faithful has its reward.
Luke 16:10a (NLT) says, "If you are faithful in little things, you will be faithful in large ones." This is Jesus talking and He knows what he is saying.
Verse 11 says, "And if you are untrustworthy about worldly wealth, who will trust you with the true riches of heaven?"
Now Solomon over in his book of Proverbs also knows what he is saying.
In Proverbs 27:23 he says, "Know the state of your flocks, and put your heart into caring for your herds, for riches don't last forever, and the crown might not pass to the next generation."
In other words, be faithful in the tasks, the opportunities, the resources that God has provided us.
Verses 25-27 says, "After the hay is harvested and the new crops appears and the mountain grasses are gathered in, your sheep will provided wool for clothing, and your goats will provide the price of a field. And you will have enough goat's milk for yourself, your family, and your servant girls."
Yes, we must be faithful, we must keep at it.
Now the rest of verse 10 in Luke says, "And if you are untrustworthy with little things, you won't be honest with greater responsibilities." And verse 12 says, "And if you are not faithful with other people's things, why should you be trusted with things of your own."
Again, Jesus says, "If you are faithful in little things, you will be faithful in large ones. And if you are untrustworthy with little things, you won't be honest with greater responsibilities. And if you are untrustworthy about worldly wealth, who will trust you with the true riches of heaven?"
Yes, being faithful has its rewards. Yes, yes! #todaysbeginning
