Little Things

Little things we do each day
Combine to make a finished work.
We will have accomplishment
If little things we do not shirk.

The “work” we do in little bits
To others may not even show.
But over time that which we’ve done
Into a mighty work will grow.

“Piece by piece” and “bit by bit”
A lot of effort doesn’t take.
With diligence and faithfulness
Surprising forward strides we’ll make!

Some things simply can’t be rushed
But prosper if we do not quit.
And so we reach our chosen goal
By daily diligence and grit.

“From the fruit of his words a man shall be satisfied with good, and the work of a man’s hands shall come back to him.”
Proverbs 12:14 Amplified Bible
