I am always struck by the way Jesus addresses the dicsiples in Matthew 6:30. Jesus exhorts us not to be anxious about our lives--food, drink, our bodies and the like. Contrasting us with flowers and grass (which never worry in case you were wondering!), Jesus calls those listening "Littlefaiths." The orignal there really carries a connotation that carries the emphasis of almost a proper name. Jesus goes on to exhort us "Littlefaiths" to "seek first His kingdom and righteousness; and all these things shall be added to you. Therefore do not be anxious for tomorrow; for tomorrow will take care of itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own."
I am continually struck with the numerous ways in life and ministry that I live like such a "Littlefaith." The Lord wants to do so much more in us and through us for His Kingdom's sake than we can imagine! Let us seek His Kingdom and allow the Lord to add the rest!
