The Significance of Simple Things

The maker of the earth and skies often used objects of small size to teach His audience and explain the deep truths that His Words contain. One day He used a little child to teach His students to be mild. To occupy His kingdom grand like children they must hold His hand. The little ants storing supplies can teach us all how to be wise. With none to direct or compel how orderly these creatures dwell. The mustard seed, though very small of garden plants they are most tall. So, like a seed, God’s kingdom grows exactly how? Only God knows. A grain of sand tween mantle and shell spawns pearls that for small fortunes sell. Faith like a tiny mustard seed can move mounts that our paths impede. Small ideas, in curious minds, have spawned inventions of all kinds. A tiny thought, sown reaps an act, that our destiny can impact. A small act of kindness, heaven knows, how far that simple action goes. Only eternity will tell how many souls it saved from hell. So, do not despise tiny things cherish the blessings each one brings. By doing so the joy you’ll know upon your countenance will show.
