Brothers be ye constant. The yoke which with single mind ye have taken, bear ye to the end: and whatever ye have seen with me and heard, keep and fulfil.
The last words of Saint David (c. 520 – c.600)
‘Do the Little Things’
Notes from the Compiler
S. David's Day, 1st March, celebrates the patron Saint of Wales and reminds us of his last words of wisdom, for us all. Blaise Pascal (1623-1662), French mathematician, physicist, and theologian, repeated the same advice for Christians in their daily 'walk'. His 'thoughts' were published in 1669: 'Do little things as though they were great, because of the majesty of Jesus Christ who does them in us, and who lives our life. And do the greatest things as though they were little and easy because of His omnipotence.'
