The Little Things

I am so guilty of letting "little things" ruin my day.   Little glitches in my schedule drive me insane.  We need to get from point A to point B and that is it!  There is no time for diaper changes, bathroom stops, flat tires, or tickets.  Can you relate?
But I am learning, very s-l-o-w-l-y learning, to start to look at these "little things" for what they truly are.   LITTLE.  There are reasons for everything, and sometimes that slow person in front of you on the road, going 30 mph instead of 50 mph is saving you from an accident that would have happened if you were not stuck behind them.    That bathroom stop gave you time to share a laugh with your children.   The flat tire allowed you to see that God sends angels in human form to help you in your times of trouble, just like He promised.
There is a great song, "This Is The Stuff" by Francesca Battistelli , that totally hits the "nail on the head".






I encourage each of you, not matter what your "little things" are, to look at them as the "stuff" God uses to show you how blessed you are.
