Petty Cash?

“Petty Cash?”
“Who hath despised the day of small things?” —Zechariah 4:10
God is interested in “little” things (Micah 5:2). The smallest fragment is important to God. Jesus instructed His disciples, “Gather up the fragments that remain, that nothing be lost” (John 6:12).
Most organizations have a stash they call "petty cash." I really dislike that term. The word petty means “small; trivial; insignificant; of little importance.” The word petty suggests something that is inferior and doesn’t matter much. In most cases “petty cash” is treated accordingly and is wasted. However, in God’s work there is no such thing as "petty cash." There are only petty purposes, petty motives, and petty excuses. Every second… every penny… every effort… and every person is important to God.
God's money should be used and invested, and He expects a return. It is sad that often our investment in God’s work is no larger than our “petty cash” stash. If you are really concerned about lost souls, shouldn't your budget reflect it?
