Ed Young Television Weekly Devotional
Trustworthy
Whoever can be trusted with very little can also be trusted with much, and whoever is dishonest with very little will also be dishonest with much. Luke 16:10
Can you be trusted? I think the first response for all of us is, "Of course I can!" And there are probably plenty of times when that is true. Most of us can be trusted when we make a promise, or when there are serious consequences at stake. But that is only part of being trustworthy.
Can you be trusted in the little things? That is where the rubber meets the road. When you tell someone you will call them, do you? When you say you will meet a friend at a certain time, do you show up 15… 30… 60 minutes late?
Real trust is proven when we follow through with the little things, not just the big ones. Because the little things could be opportunities God uses to prepare you for something more.
When a friend asks you to help with something small, remember that the little things matter. Be trustworthy with them. And discover how it can lead you to being "trusted with much."
Prayer
Dear God, Please help me to be more trustworthy in all areas of my life, especially the small things. Help me to see areas that you reveal to me that need improvement in my life so that I can be trusted with even more. In Jesus' name I pray, Amen.

SEX. Few things carry the weight or elicit the response of this three letter word. Yet, for as much as we think about it, or even think we know about it, sex is still one of the most misunderstood and misrepresented parts of life.
Through this powerful series, couples will discover what lies at the intersection of God and sex. And they will see how sex done God's way can lead to a life punctuated by exclamation marks — a life full of passion, purpose, and pleasure!
