MINISTRY

"'Go on with your work," he said. "Keep at the little daily things that need doing, till the rest comes. Concentrate! Think of a lad at his homework, trying so hard and his tongue sticking out. That's how Our Lord would have us be when He gives us up to our own strength. Little things - they don't look much, yet they bring peace. Like wild flowers which seem to have no scent, till you get a field full of 'em.'"
Georges Bernanos, The Diary of a Country Priest, p.178.
