Do Something?

You ever notice how life has a way of making us think we need to do something big and flashy to make a difference? We assume if we’re not building orphanages or curing diseases, we’re just spinning our wheels. But Hebrews 13:16 offers a different perspective. It says, “And do not forget to do good and to share with others, for with such sacrifices God is pleased.”

Now, that doesn’t mean you have to sell everything and move to some remote village—unless you just really enjoy mosquito bites. It means that the everyday kindness you show—the way you stop to listen when someone’s having a rough day, or the way you share your time, your talents, or even a piece of your heart—those things matter.

God doesn’t weigh the size of your good deed—He weighs the heart behind it. Holding the door for someone, making that phone call you’ve been meaning to, or just sitting with someone in their sorrow—those are holy acts. When you share from your soul, whether it’s a meal, a smile, or simply your presence, you’re building something far bigger than you realize: you’re building the kingdom of God, one small sacrifice at a time.

So, don’t get caught up in trying to do something grand. Just do something good. And then do it again. Because when you do, you’ll discover that sometimes the smallest kindness makes the biggest difference.
