Excerpt taken from The Love of God by Oswald Chambers:
Our Lord did not rebuke His disciples for making mistakes, but for not having faith. The two things that astonished Him were "little faith" and "great faith." Faith is not in what Jesus Christ can do, but in Himself, and anything He can do is less than Himself.
Suppose that God is the God we know Him to be when we are nearest to Him. What an impertinence worry is! Think of the unspeakable marvel of the remaining hours of this day, and think how easily we can shut God right out of His universe by the logic of our own heads, by a trick of our nerves, by remembering the way we have limited Him in the past -- banish Him right out, and let the old worry and care come in, until we are a disgrace to the name of Jesus. But let the attitude be a continual "going out" in dependence on God and the life will have an ineffable charm, which is satisfaction to Jesus Christ.

It doesn't take monumental feats to make the world a better place. It can be as simple as letting someone go ahead of you in a grocery line.
