Less is More

Think about this: Why do we always assume that more is better? We often believe that abundance—having more things, doing more, gaining more—is the key to fulfillment. But God's math doesn't work like ours. When we give God our little, He gives us more—more of His Spirit, more of His peace, more of His presence, more of His power... more of Him.We tend to think we have to do more to receive more, but God often says, “Do this one thing, and I’ll bring the increase.”We focus so much on striving and doing to get, rather than simply doing the one thing God has asked of us—and trusting Him with the rest.He asks us to love one another—and through that, others will love us.He asks for a small portion of our time in prayer—and He promises to listen and respond.He asks for 10% of our income—and He blesses and multiplies the remaining 90%.God brings the increase when we offer Him our less—in obedience and with faith.
