While we are on this earth, we cannot avoid falling. But what is important, anyway, is not to ignore these falls or to minimize them as being so small they are not worthy of our notice. Of what are made the rivers that overflow to flood the fields, but small drops of water? A small leak, not repaired in time, in the long run causes the ship to sink. (Sermon 58, 9, 10).
Being faithful in minor things is a major undertaking. (Christian Teaching, 4, 18).
