The Day of Small Things Zechariah 4.10

description

Sometimes it seems difficult to really think of ourselves as a glorious church due to small size. But it is vital to remember that God achieves great purposes through small things. By looking at the wisdom of small things, we learn the importance of preparation, habitation, cooperation, and courage. By examining the instruction to rebuilders of the temple, we remember to be strong, to work and not fear.
