A baby doesn’t look like a full grown adult.
A duckling doesn’t look like a full grown duck.
A puppy doesn’t look like a full grown dog.
But elephants?!? I love baby elephants!
Even as a baby they look just like an adult! They are just proportionately smaller!
Why do we expect immature people to look/behave/sound/react like mature people? Emotions trip people up. A spiritual walk may only be in the beginning stages. Health can interfere. The will to improve or persevere wanes.
Take a few minutes this week to consider the people God has placed in your life. He has a plan! God is the Master of creating and trusting small things, teaching us the patience and nurturing required for mature love and growth.
He shows us in the mustard seed: Matthew 13:31-32
And sparrows: Luke 12:6-7
And even in the boy’s little lunch: John 6:9
“One who is faithful in a very little is also faithful in much” Luke 16:10
