"Now, great things and great occasions of heroic virtues are rarely presented to us. But little things are offered to us every day. And how shall we ever prove our love to God if we wait for grand and brilliant things? Perhaps one may never come to us all our life long. More than this, great things require great courage. How can we make sure of our strength in heroic actions if we have made no trial of it in small ones; if we have not striven and prepared ourselves by degrees for difficult things by the performance of those which are easy?" ~Jean Nicholas Grou, "On Faithfulness in Little Things," Manual for Interior Souls
Dear Lord, help me to make the most of all the little things You will offer me this day, for Your eternal praise and everlasting glory. Amen.
