Don't Despise Small Beginnings
Who [with reason] despises the day of small things?
~Zechariah 4:10~
Probably most of us who are believing God for something can find evidence of a small beginning: a little seed, a cloud the size of a man's hand. Rejoice over that seed. It is a sign of greater things to come. Don't curse your seed by complaining over it. God gives us seed, something that causes us to hope, a little thing perhaps, but something is better than nothing. We should say, "Lord, this is only a little thing, but thank You for giving me some hope, something to hold on to. Thank You, Lord, for a beginning."
Take that seed and plant it by believing over it. The Holy Spirit showed me that I was throwing away a lot of my seed. When we despise something we regard it lightly. We take no notice of it and count it as nothing. We do not take care of it. If we don't take care of what God gives us, we lose it. If we lose the seed, we will never see the harvest. Part of Hebrews 13:5 says, in essence, "Be content with what you have." That scripture goes on to say, For He [God] Himself has said, I will not in any way . . . let [you] down. That is why we can be content ~by faith ~ during the small beginning. We know that the Lord is the Author and the Finisher (See Hebrews 12:2). What He begins, He completes (Philippians 1:6). He will do that for us~ if we will hold our faith firm until the end (Hebrews 3:6).

I appreciate you...
Two are better off than one, because together they can work more effectively. If one of them falls down, the other can help him up... Two people can resist an attack that would defeat one person alone, A rope made of three cords is hard to break" ~Ecclesiastes 4:9~
