Small Things

Oh, be careful little eyes
Oh, be careful little eyes what you see
Oh, be careful little eyes what you see
For the Father up above is looking down in love
So be careful little eyes what you see

It’s The Small Things

When we pause to look at our lives, the big things seldom accurately depict ourselves. Our lives consist of small things, fleeting moments, and activities that barely qualify as actions or events. Yet it is in the tapestry woven by all of these that display our character, our commitment to Jesus.

Within our worlds, people know us as teachers, bank tellers, homemakers, auto mechanics, and so forth. And perhaps within our worlds, we have achieved something exceptional, or we have suffered something horrible. Nevertheless, we still live our lives moment by moment, day by day. It’s still our small decisions that display our virtues.

See Yourself As God Sees You

If we allow a great success, a great defeat, or a great loss to define us, then we have surrendered ourselves to a thing rather than to our Lord Jesus. Don’t allow something from this world to sway your thoughts, intentions, or activities in life. 

For by the grace given to me, I say to everyone among you not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think, but to think with sober judgment, each according to the measure of faith that God has assigned. – Romans 12:3

We aren’t to think badly of ourselves, just realistically and from God’s perspective. And remember, the Father up above is looking down in love, so be careful little heart, who you trust.
