Don’t Neglect the Little Things

dontneglect

Don’t be deceived. God is not mocked, for whatever a man sows, that he will also reap. – Galatians 6:7, WEB

An iron wall may seem strong. We feel secure that it can’t easily be brought down by our enemies. But no matter how strong it may seem to be, it only takes rust to corrode it slowly. Time comes when the wall that seemed so strong collapses entirely because we have failed to remedy the one thing that caused it to fall down.

If we only knew the true weight of little things, we’d be more vigilant in dealing with them. If we only knew the big problems that come from our daily negligence, we’d remedy them before they ruin the important things in our lives.

Don’t neglect the little things. Don’t underestimate the small things that can ruin your health, your work or your relationships. Time seems to creep in ever so slowly, but it would soon reveal the harvest you have sown through the years.

“The safest road to hell is the gradual one – the gentle slope, soft underfoot, without sudden turnings, without milestones, without signposts.” – C.S. Lewis
