Galatians 6:9 And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not. A poor woman had a supply of coal laid at her door by a charitable neighbour. A very little girl came out with a small fire-shovel, and began to take up a shovelful at a time, and carry it to a sort of bin in the cellar. I said to the child, "Do you expect to get all that coal in with that little shovel?" She was quite confused at my question, but her answer was very striking: "Yes, sir, if I work long enough." So it is with everything in life. Humble worker, make up for your want of ability by continuous effort, and your lifework will not be trivial.
