Day 1: The Little Things


A SMILE.

A PHONE CALL.

A GOOD MORNING.

A I AM THINKING OF YOU.

A _________.

Oh the LITTLE THINGS

that become BIG THINGS.

If only we all stopped long enough

to give

A SMILE

A PHONE CALL

A GOOD MORNING

A I AM THINKING OF YOU

to that

someone who you have been

thinking about,

yet just haven't reached out to yet

because you are waiting for the perfect moment.

TODAY is the DAY

to be that someone

who does that

LITTLE THING

that TOUCHES another someone

in a BIG way.

Isn't that what JESUS is all about?

HE may have done the

BIGGEST THING

from the moment

HE left HIS heavenly home

to be swaddled in rags at birth

to be swaddled in rags at death,

just so HE could swaddle us with a

LOVE that is so BIG

that death couldn't keep HIM in the grave.

HE is HERE. HE has RISEN.

Now that is A BIG THING

that makes

JOY explode in the LITTLE THINGS,

because

when you see

JESUS in the LITTLE THINGS

LITTLE becomes so BIG

and all it begins with a

LITTLE TOUCH.

Oh she did it.

The woman labeled as the "sick woman" in the bible

who did the LITTLEST THING that changed her life in a

BIG WAY

because she reached out and

TOUCHED the fringe of

JESUS' robe

and IMMEDIATELY she was healed.

JESUS felt it because

HE felt HIS HEALING POWER

leave.

HE didn't interrogate the woman,

instead HE gave her the

BIGGEST THING~

"And HE said to her, 'Daughter, your faith has made you well; go in peace'.” (Luke 8:48)

Just because she had

the LITTLE THING called FAITH

that made her take the RISK to do a BIG THING.

Oh REACH OUT & TOUCH JESUS.

It only takes a second.

Maybe what you need from

JESUS

seems so LITTLE,

but oh nothing is

LITTLE when JESUS is involved.

Therefore

as we begin our day to

RUN THE RACE OF LIFE

let's do it like JESUS did

and

REACH OUT & TOUCH

someone with

HIS LOVE

that will bring

A SMILE

A PHONE CALL

A GOOD MORNING

A I AM THINKING OF YOU

A _________

to someone who really needs it

because~

"Love never gives up.

Love cares more for others than for self.

Love doesn’t want what it doesn’t have.

Love doesn’t strut,

Doesn’t have a swelled head,

Doesn’t force itself on others,

Isn’t always “me first,”

Doesn’t fly off the handle,

Doesn’t keep score of the sins of others,

Doesn’t revel when others grovel,

Takes pleasure in the flowering of truth,

Puts up with anything,

Trusts GOD always,

Always looks for the best,

Never looks back,

But keeps going to the end"

(I Corinthians 13:4-7).

Wear HIS LOVE

and let HIS LOVE run through you

to the someones in your life

that need that one

LITTLE TOUCH,

just like

"THE GENEROUS MR. LOWELL" does.
