This reflective piece is a work of religious discourse, likely written during the Victorian era. The sermon examines the gentle and gradual ways in which God influences both the physical and moral realms, asserting that true greatness and influence often manifest in quiet acts of faith and devotion rather than in public displays of heroism. In the sermon, Beard contrasts the noisy, tumultuous aspects of life with the serenity of God’s quieter influence. He explores themes such as the moral development of individuals through unseen forces, the importance of small, everyday acts of goodness, and the value of spiritual introspection. By drawing on biblical references, Beard articulates that true faith and character are often nurtured in silence, and that the trials of quiet lives can lead to profound spiritual depth. Ultimately, he encourages the congregation to appreciate the unseen and gradual work of God in their lives, emphasizing that genuine peace and happiness come from inner faithfulness rather than external achievements.
