When I scrolled text became very small and I do not know how to get it back to normal

I don't know what happened. I was moving my mouse over the screen and the text kept shrinking, until it's so small you can barely read it. I don't know how to get it back to normal size.

Holding the Ctrl key while scrolling increases or decreases the zoom level. You can reset the zoom by pressing Ctrl+0 (zero). More on Zooming here.
