The author is a seasoned laborer in the harvest, and he passes along lessons he has learned-some of them, the hard way. He makes no pretense of revealing earth-shattering new truths, but takes the commonplace events he has gathered to comfort and sustain others on the way to Heaven. In this little volume he shares ordinary but pithy observations: -What is the first priority of every person, no matter how great or small?-Why are some homes castles while others are more like prisons?-What scripture says that all roads lead to Rome? -How can we make friends of "the mammon of unrighteousness," and why should we even bother?-Is the taste of bread improved by a new wrapper?-Why do the righteous suffer out of proportion to the wicked? Here is a harvest of truth to strengthen, admonish, console and equip every reader.

Jesus encouraged his followers that even if one could give "a cup of cold water only... he shall in no wise lose his reward" (Matthew 10:42). The author uses this declaration as a springboard to build up Christians and induce every one to persevere in good deeds, no matter how small they may seem. The book itself becomes "a cup of cold water" of encouragement to every Christian, assuring all of us that whatever we can do is not insignificant.
