Nothing You Have Done in Faith Has Been Wasted
You might think the small things you do in faith don't matter. But here's the truth Paul wants you to hold onto: they don't disappear. They build.
In this final devotional from our "Richer Than You Think" series, we bring everything together - wealth, happiness, security, generosity, honesty, character - and discover the invisible treasure you've been building all week. Every faithful choice, every generous moment, every time you trusted God with what you have has been laying bricks in a foundation that will hold you forever.
*1 Timothy 6:19 says that by giving and doing good, "they will be storing up their treasure as a good foundation for the future so that they may experience true life."*
This isn't a call to perfection. It's a call to persistence. The harvest takes longer than you think, but it is coming. And Luke 16:9 promises something extraordinary - the people you've helped will one day welcome you into an eternal home.
So as this week closes, don't look for dramatic change. Look for a quiet one. A willingness to give that wasn't there before. That's the foundation being laid. And it's enough.
