Little is Much

I've had this song on my heart for about a week. I'm not sure what else to say, except that I am who this song talks about. I am weak and poor. I am under qualified, yet God is watering seeds that I sow, the seeds that I sow because that's what I'm called to do. I trust that. I know that I don't labor in vain, and even the smallest accomplishment comes from God's hands. So I guess I'll be a weak, poor, under qualified loser if it means following God's plans for my life. I wouldn't want to be any other place. And my story isn't over, God isn't finished with me yet. He has more to write.


Little is Much by Downhere

What is the measure of a life well-lived
If all I can offer seems too small to give
This is a song for the weaker, the poorer
And so-called failures

Little is much when God's in it
And no one can fathom the plans He holds
Little is much when God's in it
He changes the world with the seeds we sow
Little is much, little is much

Who feels tired and under-qualified
Who feels deserted, and hung out to dry
This is a song for the broken, the beat-up
And so-called losers


Consider a Kingdom in the smallest seed
Consider that giants fall to stones and slings
Consider a child in a manger
Consider the story isn't over
What can be done with what you still have
