Power in the Little Things

When I reflect on my life, do you know what stands out? All of the small things I’ve done that led me to the big things God had in store for me. I can trace this back to many moments in my life.
Listen, when you lean into what God has given you to do and focus on your strengths, you’ll be surprised how much your situation can change for the better.
I know it’s tempting to zero in on the things that aren’t working in your life. So, when you feel like you're getting off course, shift back to positive thoughts and focus on what is within your control.

This was me. I always felt like I was a quitter for a long time because I didn't finish college. I dropped out because I was living in sin, and I got pregnant by this guy that summer. Thank God he gave me another chance I lost the baby; but I never went back. It has always been that thing that made me feel like a quitter. I've been set free from it now, I am healed. ❤

[@Elijahcomeforth2011]

😮 You ALL up in my business!!😅 I start and have trouble finishing. At least, I finally figured it out... Consistency😢 Help me JESUS!!!

[@noladavis6848]

Chrystal it was such a blessing seeing you last Sunday at the Brooklyn Tabernacle with your dad and husband. I met Tannie and her family also. You sat in the row in front of me. I scream and got your attention. You are so sweet and tiny.and ask me my name. Well this is Nola and always watch the Evan's family. The love you all show as a family is so encouraging. I am also watching sister circle now. You are a blessing.

[@ChrystalHurst]

Was nice to meet you then! Glad to see you tuning in now!

[@trulysensitive5620]

Chrystal God is wonderful to your family. Be blessed always.

[@crlundy86]

I've watched this twice already. I didn't realize how much I needed THIS. Thank you Chrystal - one day at a time one thing at a time (small things)👏🏽

[@jerriwilliams5691]

Hey Chrystal, you are speaking to me, I want to finish well 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾

[@ChrystalHurst]

you can!

[@joyceguy9063]

Great message. Small things matter! Out walking. Thank you. Enjoy your walk. Peace and blessings.❤

[@Sisterbettyjo9179]

Hi!! Chrystal I enjoyed what you was sharing. Start from doing small things. I had started working on a 1000 piece puzzles two months ago. I never did 1000 pieces before. It was a challenge. I had clean off my large dinner table. I would go to it and work on it little at a time. I had finished at the end of the month. I ask Jesus to help me through it. And He did, each time I found some pieces I would say “Thank You Jesus” 😊 I have now finish three 1000 piece puzzles. I’m now working on my fourth one. If it be God’s Will I will have it done before this month end!! 😊 I worked on it little at a time. I started painting!! And I started listening to Gospel music in the mornings when I gets up. I ask “Alexa” after watching one of your video how to cook rice. I pulled out my Alexa and started using her to play me worship music. So Thank you for sharing with us. It has been really good help for me. I even have started some other positive projects. God Bless You!! In The Name of Jesus Christ!!✝️👑🥰♥️♥️♥️🔥🔥🔥🙏🏾🙏🏽🙏🏽

I really needed to hear this today. Thank you so much, Chrystal.

[@shaneltaylor3337]

This is powerful and thought provoking. Thank you Chrystal. God continue to bless you.

[@ChrystalHurst]

You are so welcome

[@jacquelinehuggins6021]

Crystal, my signature comment at the end of my emails says this: "Keep the ESP: Eternal Significance Perspective and don't sweat the small stuff."

[@ChrystalHurst]

Love that!

[@pmd6144]

Chrystal!! This spoke to me when it was first posted, and the first 21 day challenge has led to another 21 day challenge with different set of friends! Also, so many awesome nuggets in this vid that I needed to hear again. I thank God for you and your ministry to us!!❤🤗❤

[@styleandstewardship]

Chrystal, this was so timely! So many of us need this reminder and encouragement. Overwhelm is real but so are small, intentional steps! Either way what we do will amount to an increase or a deficit. Thank you

[@ourhannahshouse]

This was so good for me today...I've been slacking but I went to the gym today. I worked out for an hour and I haven't done that in over two years 😢! I listen to contemporary gospel and cried a little on the treadmill but I got through it encouraged in the Lord! I'm going to try to work out 3 times a week for and hour...

[@ChrystalHurst]

Congrats on getting to the gym!

[@twanadenby1290]

Thank YOU CRYSTAL, l feel like l have been dying ill for 8yrs, abuse and severe mental and physical disabilities… been feeling like a wash out for Christ! Your WORDS give me HOPE( l don’t usually do hope or faith well as l should)in the past , but DECLARE l WILL FROM HERE ON OUT- by God’s grace! Overwhelmed, prevented, blocked… l NOW FEEL LIKE. That l CAN DO SPIRIT! By the Hily Spirit. But thanks for making it practical! ❤❤️‍🩹😊😀

[@juliadavids3675]

Thank you Chrystal this is thought provoking.

[@cheresabutler4264]

Thank you for your BLESSED Encouragement!😇

[@jacquanahughes6433]

Thank you so much. You are right in my lane on this topic. I'm always thinking towards the mountain and not the ground to just take a step to start.

[@elementaryfundamentals]

20:35 My family started investments with me until they were physically unavailable to do so - it definitely helped when transitioning into adulthood. I'm working with Kid #1 and Kid #2 to do the same now. There are a multitude of options, though I like Charles Schwab for fractional shares. Thank you for sharing this with your community!

[@marshamccuin8696]

Right on time❤

[@jerriwilliams5691]

It was awesome that changed my life. VBS at Ocbf was awesome

[@Elijahcomeforth2011]

In regards to being intentional... HOW do I stay intentional w/all these people that wanna hang out. I got 2 boys 12/9, husband, and 2 jobs... I am just trying to keep my head above water. So, when they say let's hang out, or new person, give me your number... do I lie and say ok... (heart is willing) or tell the truth and turn them down immediately? At least I didn't lie. I want to be a fountain, but I am in survival mode. Plate is full with My PEOPLE. Don't even have time for my health, how am I suppose to have time for the outsiders? ❤❤

[@valeriepayton2534]

I totally understand this 🥺

[@crlundy86]

There are seasons for everything. In this season you and your family are your priority and your ministry. Make no apologies for not being a superwoman just be a sensible woman and a sensitive woman. Listen to Holy Spirit and yourself. Shut out the unnecessary (things that will not affect your household) and focus on taking care of you, so you can partner with your spouse in taking care of your home. GOD bless, keep, cover and empower you.

[@katrinamiles9675]

Yes, be honest and tell them I don't have the space right now. Ask for them to pray for you and check back at the end of the year. . .maybe. Calendar your one thing and post it for everyone to see. Tell them that time is off limits and not to ask for you to do something else. They can only encourage you.

[@Elijahcomeforth2011]

I so ❤ appreciate your advice. This is for a season. ❤ ​@@crlundy86

[@Elijahcomeforth2011]

​@katrinamiles9675 thanks for the great reminders.
