Zechariah 4:10 For who has despised the time of insignificant things? They will rejoice to see the plumb line in the hand of Zerubbabel. These seven lights represent the eyes of the LORD, which are looking throughout all of the earth."

I know of a man who started a church with a few people and lost hope at the end of the first year with an attendance of twelve. Now that church has over 10,000 members. Another person I know started as a dishwasher in a popular food chain and now owns 850 of those franchises.
Everything starts small. The desire to gain wealth or success overnight is a foolish dream which usually ends up in a loss. But, when God is involved in our projects, small beginnings can grow and bring forth much fruit and success. I encourage you today to be patient and to persevere in small things, so that God may show Himself to be faithful. Let's trust in Him! --Connie Bryson |

"The Branch" is one of the most significant of Messiah's names. A branch bears the fruit and reveals the character of the tree. Christ as Jehovah's branch, revealed by His words and deeds the true character of His Father. Jesus said, "I am the Vine, ye are the branches," the fruit-bearing part of the vine.
