CGM: It’s The Little Things

His master said to him, ‘Well done, good and faithful servant. You have been faithful over a little; I will set you over much. Enter into the joy of your master.’ —Matthew 25:21

Frustrated that plans aren’t moving forward? Hoping for a big break through?

Don’t give up.

Whatever you’re doing, it’s important to continue to make progress—even if it seems “little.”

And a BIG Thank you to CGM for hosting another post from my blog and continuing to do “The little things”—every day.

Here is the link to Your Daily Encouragement.

Have a great time of worship this weekend!
Pastor Bill

Bill Herried is a pastor at CenterPoint Church in Tacoma, Washington and is married to the most extraordinary woman on the planet. Together they have 3 adult children and 4 grandchildren. He has been the lead pastor at CenterPoint Christian Fellowship in Tacoma since 2006. He has an undergraduate degree from the University of Washington in Seattle, and Master of Divinity from Corban University in Salem, Oregon—and he loves a good biryani.

Only Love

“By this, everyone will know that you are my disciple…”

“You are the light of the world—like a city on a hilltop that cannot be hidden. No one lights a lamp and then puts it under a basket. Instead, a lamp is placed on a stand, where it gives light to everyone in the house. In the same way, let your good deeds shine out for all to see, so that everyone will praise your heavenly Father.” —Matthew 5:14–16

Jesus said that there is one characteristic that his disciples would be known by: Love. Not a general good feeling for people around us—feelings come and go. Jesus defined love as action. It is a genuine care for others that shows itself in what we do.

And it’s not of this world.

It is the ability to love the unlovable. To serve those you detest. That is what Jesus and Martin have called us to.

You are the light of the world. Let your actions shine for all to see, so that they would recognize God’s presence in our world and give praise to Him.
