The Little Things

I think one of the biggest pains when it comes to moving are the last few little things that seem to linger there. We are at a point where we have tackled much of the big stuff at the Brick House Cafe` and we have a lot of little detail work to do now. That is not as fun but still a necessity. Actually it is just fine but perhaps a bit hard to keep track of. I was reviewing the master list of things to do and it is pretty much complete. This did not include the details and so now I think I need to sit and list out all the little details so we can be sure not to miss them. Fun, fun, fun, fun, fun...

Jay and the fam were on a walk and stopped in this evening for a bit. That was great especially when Jay helped move some furniture from across the street. Ma has been moving a lot of the small stuff and we have the bigger furniture to move now. Shucks, that is like the opposite of our construction schedule except that there will still be the little things to do after the furniture gets moved. I am not on packing duty so that is fine.

Well, I am rambling on a bit here. Let me say this. The little things are key in life. Spiritually we are taught by a still small voice. Yes there are times when we can experience big or intense spiritual promptings and they are wonderful. Most of the time the guidance we receive comes through faith and a listening ear to the quiet promptings of the spirit. I was pondering testimony meeting some over the last couple of days and how this meeting has always been one of my favorites because of the Spirit that I feel there. It is a quiet prompting without a lot of fanfare. The promptings of the Spirit are often small but they are very real. I am grateful for the little things in life. Indeed it is the little things that make all the difference.
