FJWL_01:304
         I have blessed you for your humility, for your willingness to do the jobs that had to be done, for your humility to not seek the high place, but to seek the low place. I have brought you to the high place because you have sought the lowly place, because you have been diligent and faithful in the little tasks, in the smaller duties. He that is faithful in that which is least is faithful also in much. Now I give you duties in the house of your queen, that you may minister to her through your faithfulness, your willingness, and your humility.
         I have given you a strong and powerful mind, and I am well pleased that with this gift you have yet been willing to do those things which are small in the sight of man, but which are great in the sight of God. Your humility has made you great. Your willingness and your yieldedness has caused you to reap great reward and a place of honor.
         For many years you trudged along day by day doing your duties, through hardships, through toil, but always in faithfulness. Like the tortoise, as opposed to the hare, you faithfully plodded along--until you plodded right into the house of the king and queen! Though you have not done those things that are great in the sight of man, you have done those things that are great in the sight of God, for you have been faithful in the little things, faithful to My calling, faithful to My checks and My admonitions, faithful in your obedience and in your willingness. Your faith has made you strong. Your faith has made you whole. And your faithfulness has made you great (ML #3043).
