LESSER AND GREATER
The smallest thing is but a reduced exemplar of the greatest thing.
So learning all about the smallest thing is also learning about the greatest thing. Dealing with the lesser is dealing with the greater.
Any ocean's depth, vitalities, power, refracted in its constituent chemical properties are found in any of its salty drops; also any mountain in its rocks.
Our DNA and our RNA code refract us genetically as they have the seven billion human ancestors that it took to produce each and everyone of us.
The greater contains the lesser. The lesser embodies the greater. Amity.
As with the ocean, the mountain, DNA, RNA, mankind also reflects and refracts the image of God on earth.
Truly, then "as you have done it to the least of these, my brothers, you have done it unto me." Matthew 25:40
