The Oak and the Acorn

 The Oak and the Acorn

So many times we see that God has something big for us but miss how He wants to bring it into our lives.
We are expecting the Oak tree but God gives us the acorn. So we chuck out or ignore the acorn because it doesn’t fit what we expected. This leads to our missing out on what God intended for us.
Be faithful with the small and the big will come.

Luke 16:10 He who is faithful in what is least is faithful also in much; and he who is unjust in what is least is unjust also in much.

The first thing that popped into my head was of a college student who had come into my store yesterday.  This young man had gone a little overboard, in my opinion, with his cologne.  It was so strong that I could smell him coming.  I also have customers who come in to the store with a different type of fragrance, one that isn’t pleasant.  In both cases you can smell them before you even see them and also the fragrance sticks around for a while after they leave.  The point of this being that fragrance influences and ...
