~ The Little Things ~
But ask the beasts, and they will teach you;
the birds of the heavens, and they will tell you;
or the bushes of the earth, and they will teach you;
and the fish of the sea will declare to you.
Who among all these does not know
that the hand of the Lord has done this?
In his hand is the life of every living thing
and the breath of all mankind.
Little Things: A Poem by Julia Carney
Little drops of water, little grains of sand
Make the mighty oceans and the pleasant land
Thus the little minutes, humble though they be
Make the mighty ages of eternity
Thus our little errors lead the soul away
From the path of virtue, off in sin astray
Little deeds of kindness, little words of love
Make this world an Eden like the heaven above
