Description
You’ve heard of 75 Hard, right? A 75 day commitment to do a series of hard things daily. Traditionally, that list of hard things includes 2 workouts daily (one outside), eating a healthy meal plan, drinking a gallon of water, reading 10 pages, and taking a daily progress photo. Every day for 75 days. No cheats. No misses. It’s hard. A lot of people fail. That’s why it’s called 75 hard. God sometimes calls us to do hard things in certain seasons of our lives. But regardless of your current season of life, I can absolutely guarantee you God is calling you to a very specific commitment. Are you ready for it, because once you hear this you can’t unhear it. And once you hear it, you will know this is for you. GOD IS CALLING YOU TO BE FAITHFUL. As of this Thursday, October 17th, there are 75 days left in 2024. God is inviting you into a partnership with him for 75 Faithful. He isn’t asking you to do anything ridiculously hard. He’s not asking you to do anything overwhelmingly big. He’s simply asking you to be faithful with something little with him. It’s so easy to dismiss the little things as unimportant, but actually my sister, with God, the most important things are often the things no one else even sees. Jesus said in Mark 4: 30-32, “How can I describe the Kingdom of God? What story should I use to illustrate it?” First, understand what the Kingdom of God is. Kingdom work is salvation work. It is God’s divine work within you to grow you into the girl God created you to be and align you with his great plans for your life. So Jesus is saying, “Let me explain to you the work only God is going to do in your life.” And this is the example he uses to describe that work in your life: “It is like a mustard seed planted in the ground. It is the smallest of all seeds, but it becomes the largest of all garden plants, it grows long branches, and birds can make nests in its shade.” The mustard seed was the absolute tiniest seed the people of this day had ever seen. Now imagine that seed thrown on the ground … you would never even notice it’s there. And buried in the ground … impossible to find. Mustard seeds are so tiny, it takes about 20,000 seeds to weigh a single ounce. And yet, Jesus points out that this tiny, seemingly insignificant ,even unnoticeable thing, grows. It grows to become the largest plant in the garden. And this is how God works in the little things in your life. The little things you do that no one will ever notice or praise. The little things that are so easy to do, and also so easy not to do. These little things represent the Kingdom of God in your life. Again, what is that? That’s the work only God can do in your life. Jesus also said in Mark 4: 26-29, “The Kingdom of God is like a farmer who scatters seed on the ground. Night and day, while he’s asleep or awake, the seed sprouts and grows, but he does not understand how it happens. The earth produces the crops on its own. First a leaf blade pushes through, then the heads of wheat are formed, and finally the grain ripens. And as soon as the grain is ready, the farmer comes and harvests it with a sickle, for the harvest time has come.” So, this work God does in your life is again like that tiny seed, and when planted, it grows in the unseen. Night and day, it grows even though we don’t understand how. It just happens. I know you want a big harvest in your life. I know you have a hurt you’re trying to heal from, a hardship you’re trying to make it through, a change you’re desperately trying to mak...
