ROME WAS NOT BUILT IN A DAY
Literal Meaning:
This proverb reminds us that great achievements take time to achieve. Success does not come by wishful thinking or merely shouting the loudest amen in church—it comes through steady effort and perseverance.
Street Equivalent:
“Good things take time.” or “Na small small.”
Personal Growth: Developing good habits or mastering skills doesn’t happen overnight. It requires consistent effort, persistence, and even trial and error.
Education: Completing school or earning a degree takes years of study, patience, and diligence.
Relationships: Trust and love are built gradually, not instantly. They demand understanding, tolerance, and acceptance of each other’s weaknesses.
Projects: Whether constructing a house or growing a business, lasting success requires time, strength, and steadfast application of effort.
Patience is essential for meaningful progress. Consistency matters more than speed. Slow and steady wins the race. Racing in circles with great speed takes you nowhere.
Big results come from small, daily steps. One step in the right direction each day builds the foundation for success.
Biblical & Moral Reflection:
The Bible says, “Let us not grow weary in doing good, for in due season we shall reap, if we do not give up” (Galatians 6:9). God’s work in us is also a process—step by step, little by little, until His perfect plan is fulfilled.
Don’t despise small beginnings. Stay faithful, and in time, your “Rome” will be built—one stone at a time.
