I love this quote. It inspires and convicts me.
It is, after all, mostly little common things that make up our lives. This is the raw material for the spiritual life. If we despise small things, regard normal household duties as burdens, routines as boring, rules too confining, we will never learn, nor can we teach our children, to live a life of holy harmony. This takes faithfulness in the troublesome details first of all, learning to do them well that we may make of them an offering to the Lord, for it is His work after all, given to us. It is our daily bread for which we should learn to be faithful. Such faithfulness is the ground work for all God may ever ask us to do. 130, The Shaping of a Christian Family
