And if anyone gives even a cup of cold water to one of these little ones because he is My disciple, truly I tell you, he will never lose his reward.

A cup of cold water
Jesus sends his disciples out. He tells them how hard it may become. And then he ends with something small: a cup of cold water.
In a hot country that is no small thing. But it isn't heroic either. It is something anyone can do. Nothing you do for someone else, however small, is lost with God.
Question for today
Who can I give a cup of cold water to today?
Prayer
Lord, thank you that small things count with you too. Let me give someone something simple today, in your name. Amen.
