Or, "Do the little things."
This phrase, taken from what has been traditionally acredited to St David's last sermon, characterize the life and faith of
"...St. Lily, surnamed Gwas-Dewy, that is, St. David's man, [was David's] beloved disciple and companion in his retirement." (*)
St Lily apparently took to heart the lessons he heard and learned from his mentor, since he is honored (still, primarily in Wales) for his faithfulness to David's teaching to
"Be joyful, and keep your faith and your creed. Do the little things that you have seen me do and heard about... " (**)
Augustine also echoed Christ when he said, "To be faithful in little things is a big thing."
"He who is faithful in very little things is faithful also in much." - Luke 16:10
