I have dreamt of performing some mighty act that would have a far-reaching impact. That, however, is not likely to happen. What I can do, however, is be faithful with the simple gifts that I’ve been given. I can write words that encourage and inspire a few. I can counsel some whose hearts have been broken and minister healing to them. When it is all said and done, it will be simple gestures that will have been my calling. Perhaps that is also true for you. Perhaps you have wondered if you might do something grand and noble when you were being called to be faithful with simple gestures. Consider who, in your realm of influence, might need a simple gesture from you today.
