{small}: five minute friday

Go

Then a poor widow came and dropped in two small coins.

---Matthew 12:42

And Jesus was pleased. It's not about being big and giving more, but about giving your all. And your all is enough.

Finding mine to do isn't about bigger and "better." It isn't about more. It isn't about giving from a surplus of time.

Mine to do is about a life of giving everything I have to live on. It's not about a small part of my surplus. It's my everything. Even if my everything is small.

It's dropping small words into the souls of healing children.

It's giving small smiles in the crowded halls of a school.

It's putting paint on a small canvas to offer reminders of intentional living.

It's finding small bits of time to put words on the page.

It's giving small hugs again and again.

It's writing small notes.

This living small is enough. In fact, it's more than enough. It is everything.

Stop

This summer, I came across a writing challenge hosted by Lisa-Jo Baker that I thought I'd give a try.For more information, check out this link to Five Minute Friday. The nitty-gritty is you write for 5 minutes on a word, then you share your post, and you comment on another. I hope you'll join too.
