Little Things are the Big Things

To bring up a child in light
Requires heavenly insight
It requires instilling truth
To those while still in their youth
It requires we show them their worth
How they've been cherished since their birth
With care and with dedication
We show forth selfless consecration

Little things are the big things
They make us feel like we're kings
Like a Thousand threads of love
That's rich in colors from above
It forms a warm tapestry
That's passed down from ancestry
As a treasured legacy
Of one who showed tenacity

Jesus added silken thread
When He fed all fish and bread
Jesus added golden strings
Every time He did small things
His concerns were specific
All He did was terrific
With threads of faith, love and work
He sacrificed, He did not shirk

The beauty of Diety
Has been placed for all to see
If we search in the scriptures
We'll find the painted pictures
Jesus along the seashore
Cooking breakfast, a small chore...
He would that we feed his sheep
And help God's children covenants keep
