1 Samuel chapter 18 - the Bible says that Saul was very angry at the song he was displeased and because they had credited David with tens of thousands and he thought with me they've only credited me with only thousands what more can he get but the kingdom and from that day the Bible says Saul kept a close eye on David. Friends, I've realized that we become dissatisfied because a lot of times we're focusing on the gift we have been given in comparison with what someone else has and that takes our eyes away from the giver of the gift. Saul became disturbed because David was chanted through the streets as the anointed one but you see David's anointing didn't mean Saul was not anointed don't be blinded by someone else's gift that you don't see that the giver of the gift has also given you something. Think about it, Jesus chose the boat of Simon and He didn't mean that the other boat was useless if you read further you realize how useful the other boat was it represented partnership and collaboration in the harvest of souls lost people must be saved, saved people must be pastored. pastored people must be trained, trained people must be sent and everyone has their place functioning in their gift and there's a place for you. Some people are wounded for a lifetime because of the injury caused by comparison they measure their value by what they have received as gifts but guess what the giver is wiser. We sometimes desire what we can't handle just because we have seen it with someone we perceive are like us if you realize that the giver is wiser, you'll be glad that you have what you have, I tell you because what you have is relevant and it's relevant in God's eyes but sometimes is not relevant in your eyes because you're seeing the seed while God is looking at the harvest you see a seed, God sees the tree that produces more seeds that produces more trees and sometimes we throw the seed away because we prayed for a tree and this seed doesn't match our expectations but the vineyard that you prayed for can be in the seed that you're rejecting. God is a giver of small things but his small gifts have bigger effect and you need to realize that all that the harvest is, is the result of the seed don't shout about the harvest and shy away from the seed the enemy may not even be after your harvest, he may just be after the seed so be careful what you throw away, be careful who you throw away Be careful how you look at small beginnings. Friends, it started with Abraham, Isaac passed it on, Jacob multiplied it God looks at the harvest while sometimes you look at the seed. Be careful how you see what is with you Have a blessed day friends!
