in the wittle things

Sometimes, I think we miss some parts of following God. At least for me, I think I need to convert the whole nation, heal the sick, move a couple mountains, and still make it home for dinner to really "serve" the Lord.

But this is not always so. C.S. Lewis states,

"Sainthood lies in the habit of referring to the smallest actions to God."

I'm not saying to not heal the sick, but pay attention the smaller details. If someone is planting a church, but neglecting their family, that is not right. Obedience to God, especially in the small things, is greater than any sacrifice we need, because sacrifice is encompassed within obedience.

Obedience>Sacrifice
