I cut myself this morning. It's just a little paper cut, but it sure does hurt! It doesn't make much sense that such a little thing could cause so much discomfort.
That little paper cut has me thinking about little things in general.
Little things can make a big difference. Sometimes, as in the case of my paper cut, it's a bad thing.
One or two little words uttered in anger or frustration can negatively impact a relationship.
A simple tweet or Facebook update, perhaps typed in anger or frustration, can do great harm.
A few seconds texting while driving can have disastrous consequences.
A few words. A few seconds. Little things matter.
The little things can have great negative impact, but can also have great positive impact as well.
A quick little phone call can brighten someone's day.
A few minutes to write a note can make a big difference.
A simple tweet or Facebook update can just as easily have a positive impact as a negative one.
A little note. A little phone call. A little act of kindness.
Little things can make a big difference.
Little things can discourage. But little things can also encourage.
Which will you choose today?
"A word fitly spoken is like apples of gold in a setting of silver." (Proverbs 25:11 ESV)
