והיה עקב תשמעון. Rashi and Daat Zekanim explain that it refers to the mitzvot that are small in one's eyes. Why are these the mitzvot to ensure ושמר ה' את הברית? The care one applies to the small mitzvot proves one's allegiance to Hashem. It is not the big things that prove one's allegiance, it is being careful in all the small things.
וסרתם ועבדתם אלקים אחרים. The Baal Shem Tov says a mere וסר, a small turn, can lead a person eventually to avodah zarah. It is the small turn that leads one way off the path.
I saw a peshat derech derush that may be the peshat in the Gemarah that אין לגבי משה מילתא זוטרתא היא. Since Moshe focused on even the little things, therefore, yirah was easy for him.
