The Danger Of "Little Things"

They're "Little Things", little tweaks to what we've been able to tolerate or have accepted in the past. That's all they are. Little things that push the boundaries just a little further. Nothing big, but every little one potentially very dangerous when we consider that since the creation of man, our God hasn't compromised what He's said even one "little" bit. Most of us live in a world full of things we feel that we have to try to keep up with. The demands of the world around us can be many and at times we may find ourselves stretched to our limits to have any time to pay attention to all of the things we hold to be important. Sometimes it's hard just to cover all of the basics as well as we feel we should. Or in the way that society would tell us that we should.

It's a period of harshness, deprivation ... and wrath. The changing of the seasons and the occurrence marked by the 3 days in question aren't tied together by coincidence. Their timing together was part of a plan set into motion at the moment God created the earth. Because of Gods' infinite wisdom, this life contains many parallels. Many are found in creation, our own bodies, relationships between people, and things that occur in the nature
