The key to success in outreach is faithfulness in doing small things. It is possible to accomplish great things - big things - as we pursue a path of consistently done small things. I have a saying that explains things well: "Small things done with great love will change the world." We can do no large things.
When we try to do things on a large scale we end up making a mess of it all. Yet as we sign on for small things that are done consistently over the long haul we end up doing lasting things. God is able to take our small things and make them line up to become something great. God loves to breathe upon our acts of faithfulness and in turn make something great out of them.
Be encouraged. Your small things will add up in order to make something great come about. Look for open doors for doing small things God is showing you. Start today with small steps of obedience. God can (and will!) do amazing things with a life that is set on obeying him.
