Faithfulness in Little Duties

By Henry Edward Manning

EVERY duty, even the least, involves the whole principle of obedience; and little duties make the will dutiful, that is, supple and prompt to obey. Little obediences lead into great. The daily round of duty is full of probation and of discipline; it trains the will, heart, and conscience. The commonest life may be full of perfection. The duties of home are a discipline for the ministries of Heaven.—H. E. Manning.
