The next big thing

2 Kings
The story of Naaman exemplifies how we must be willing to swallow our pride so that God can do his work in our lives.  We may often wonder when God is going to do his next big thing in our lives, but all the time perhaps he is working in our lives in small ways, stretching and growing us day by day.
In addition, while we are holding out for the opportunity to make ourselves shine, we could be actually keeping God from working in our lives at all!  This story in 2 Kings 5 shows us that once we humble ourselves, God's Spirit can move through us, enabling him to do the work and bringing him the glory that he is due.
