NEGLECTING THE NEEDFUL LITTLE THINGS

Sometimes, the things we tag "little" might turn out to becoming the "HEROES" of the day. There is a Biblical saying which reads "the stone the builders rejected would become the chief corner stone. Now, let's browse through these instances:

WRIST WATCH or WALL CLOCK
Some of us always go with the notion of "since i have my phone📱 with me, i do not need a wrist watch⌚ around my wrist or a wall clock🕛 in my house. Please, carefully observe my scenario: my phone's battery was almost drained out at night, there was no fuel in the generator, i was so optimistic that light would surface that night since my area is a kind of illuminated almost all the time, but unfortunately, it was blank out all through the night and i was having an appointment the next morning by 6am. Worst of all, my phone went off. There was no wrist watch, there was no wall clock to scrutinize time. I couldn't sleep properly - i was just waking up almost every 30minutes; My neighbour wasn't around, i do not understand the olden days pattern of observing time, no fowl in my area 😂. To me, what i did that night/day, was vigil. To cut the long story short, i missed my appointment after all the sleeping and waking up stress. No one told me to get a new wrist watch and a wall clock, i advised my self.

UMBRELLA OR RAINCOAT/RAINBOOT 🏖
These things are very necessary, especially in this rainy season. They could also be needful, if the need arises, in dry seasons. Just imagine if it starts raining and you are along the Road where there is no shade, no canopy to hide under. Trust me, that your new shoe would get spoilt and you might end up getting cold fever. Apart from these, it is embarrassing and disgusting to experience.

FULFILLING OF PROMISE TO CALL bACK: Often times, naturally, we shirk our little promises of calling somebody back after which they might have called us, then we give excuses of oh, "am busy right now i will call you back" and never consent to it even when we remember. We should note integrity is always a hard task to portray and so, all little things count as to who we really are.

SLEEPING UNDER MOSQUITO NET: prevention they said is better than cure. Sometimes our immediate environment are not mosquito friendly, and with the use of mosquito net, we can eventually send mosquito on a dry fasting without prayer but we neglect utilizing mosquito nets because of heat hence incurring malaria that will cost us our hard earned money for drugs, instead of doing the needful at the initial stage by sleeping under mosquito net.

REPLACEMENT OF PHONE CHARGER: This is very common among us nowadays, especial when you have a colleague in the office who uses your type of phone charger, in state of replacing ours, we prefer borrowing from colleagues, friends and fam.

The four factor below can be traced to neglecting little things:
1 Laziness
2 Time
3 taking little things for granted
4 lack of sufficient finance.

Thanks for always for your initial support.
God bless all steemians, God bless federal republic of steemit.
