The Beginning of the Upswing

In our faith journey, we often overlook the power of small acts of service. This message reminds us that even the simplest tasks, like holding babies in the nursery, can have a profound impact on our church community. It's a beautiful illustration of 1 Peter 4:10, which encourages us to use whatever gift we have received to serve others. The story of starting small and eventually growing into larger roles parallels many biblical narratives, such as David's journey from shepherd to king. It challenges us to be faithful in the little things, trusting that God can use our humble offerings to create ripples of change. As we reflect on our own lives, let's consider how we can serve, no matter our circumstances, and witness the transformative power of consistent, loving service over time.
