Small Victories – Sunday, June 28, 2026

In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you – 1 Thessalonians 5:18 

Victories, no matter their sizes 
Are much-needed prizes 
For the exhausted soul 
A glorious sight to behold

No matter if large or small 
Each one of them all 
Have been gift wrapped from above 
Deserving of a heartfelt expression of love 

The poem was composed from a place of gratitude involving a problem for which I sought God’s direction in its resolution.  After complying with my responsibilities, I waited.  Yet, nothing changed after many days.  Then came a recognizable shift, and I began to see tangible improvements, which prompted me to remember “In every thing give thanks.”  That includes all victories, even the small ones.   

Hopefully, my testimonial will jog your memory of any recent victories, even if the matter isn’t fully resolved.  And if so, you will be certain on this Sunday to give God what He deserves, “a heartfelt expression of love.”
