Is God in the Details when Less is More?

Print PDF

Ludwig Mies van der Rohe, born in Aachen (Aw-kin), Germany was known for his poetic mottos - two of which I'm sure you've heard, "Less is More" and "God is in the details." Coming from the mind of an architect these two mottos seemed to be pivotal to his work. But I believe even for the "non-architecturally" inclined there is an important application.

First - "Less is More"

David Breeze, a humorous public speaker once delivered a message titled, "The Ten most Believable Lies of the Devil." One of which was simply this, "You're to good for this." How often this lie is whispered in our ears when we stand on the pressabyss of a seemingly mediocre decision! Anything that requires an ethical or moral decision we must remain faithful to. One such example would be our usual willingness to "bear false witness" to telemarketers. One calls and we say were busy, or that there's "static on the line," or that a tiger just got loose in the kitchen - You know the excuses I'm getting at - when all we really needed to say is "I'm not interested" firmly but politely and hang up. Some refer to this as "Candor." A principle of which Jack Welch (GE's highly successful CEO) said is necessary to use with all people - Candor being nothing more then simple honesty. We must remember to be faithful in the small areas of our life if we expect more - since Less is More.

Second - "God is in the Details"

God truly is in the Details. I believe what Ludwig was aiming for in this statement was simply the realization that, "Small things make-up big things." (Sounds reminiscent of our last paragraph, doesn't it?) Every motivational book you'll pick up will usually teach this principle, "Be faithful in the small things and the big things will come." This is not only true in the business world but also in our relationship with God. It is through us making the small decisions that we know God would be pleased with that we draw closer to God and He draws closer to us. If we pay attention to the small moral and ethical details in our lives we will see God more and more in our lives, since God truly is in the details.
