I feel lucky to be blessed with the ability to stop and have patience and see the big picture more often than not. I know many people don't have that, and it can make life frustrating, as well as allow insignificant details to get in the way of the things that matter.
One of the questions I often ask myself regardless of the situation is, "What does this mean in the grand scheme of things?" When it comes to our jobs, kids, relationships, etc, it is very easy to let small stupid details get in the way of peace. I don't believe that is productive whatsoever. So as you seek peace in your life, make one of the first steps you take to be to get in the habit of asking yourself that very question in every situation you go through. When you stop and think about that, you will find that most details are just exactly that---details. The things that matter will not be clouded and polluted with the small, insignificant details that shouldn't affect them. You will be amazed at how much easier your days seem with that mindset!
I hope God is blessing your day, and that you are looking for opportunities to make a difference in this crazy world we live in! Don't waste your days, have an impact!!!
