Starting Builds Momentum

If you have time, it is worth reading the whole of Nehemiah 3. Ever since I first read it, it has been one of my favourite chapters in the Bible. It is a fantastic example of what can be achieved if every one of us chips in and does our part. It reveals that the size of our contribution is not what matters most but rather that we contribute. Throughout the chapter, we see after one person starts building their neighbour or someone similar or related to them joins the building project. It reminds us to get involved and that our contribution no matter how small or seemingly insignificant may trigger someone else to join in and unintentionally start a chain reaction.

Questions for reflection: Is there something or somewhere that the Lord has asked me to contribute to that I have ignored? Am I despising the size of my contribution? Have I considered that my role might be part of a bigger chain?
