Jumbo-Shrimp
Who say’s small isn’t big enough? Ever hear of the term, ‘Jumbo-Shrimp?’ Or “Great things come in small packages?” No matter what we look like, or who we are, does that honestly matter?

As children of God, we are to be like children. (Luke 18:15-17) We must be as humble as children. Aren’t about 99.9% of children in the world small compared to the average adult? Humble enough to even learn from younger, or not as educated people. These people may know something you don’t, and vice versa. Spread what you know to ‘set an example for the believers,’ your brothers and sisters, by ‘devoting yourself’ to the Scripture.

So bottom line, small or big, preach and teach Jesus’ love for everyone, ‘in life, in love, in faith and purity,’ for an example to set for each other no matter who you are.

D.D.
1 Timothy 4:11-13

11Command and teach these things. 12Don’t let anyone look down on you because you are young, but set an example for the believers in speech, in life, in love, in faith and in purity. 13Until I come, devote yourself to the public reading of Scripture, to preaching and to teaching. ~ NIV
