It's the small things that count. It's the small things that change this world. A smile, a hug, a passing compliment, a conversation with a friend. It's a story of constant humility and love.
"The Lord said, 'Go out and stand on the mountain in the presence of the Lord, for the Lord is about to pass by.'
Then a great and powerful wind tore the mountains apart and shattered the rocks before the Lord, but the Lord was not in the wind. After the wind there was an earthquake, but the Lord was not in the earthquake. After the earthquake came a fire, but the Lord was not in the fire. And after the fire came a gentle whisper. When Elijah heard it, he pulled his cloak over his face and went out and stood at the mouth of the cave." -1 Kings 19:11-13
The big, terrible things always seem to be the scariest and the most fearsome. But God constantly reminds us—and those big, terrible things—Who's in charge here.
And He'll use the small things to bring us the utmost needed humility; to remind us that we really aren't that big. And He'll use the small things to remind us that true strength lies in complete vulnerability. Only a God at the Most High would fully understand and know and encourage us to trust in the small things.
