little things....

 This morning I was feeling kinda down..... 
Wasn't quite sure why
and as I thought about it 
I realized that the whole reason was 
a product I had researched and purchased 
had turned out slightly different than I anticipated.....
I can still make it work....
but it was disappointing
and this morning the residue
carried into my mind
and heart.

As I thought about it I was reminded,
'I don't have to live this way'
and chose to thank God
for life
and so many good things
and even the product I had purchased
that WILL work if I am a little extra careful....

I reminded myself
that this is a LITTLE thing.....
in a world of Bigger things....

And I read a Proverb from Solomon
19:3 The foolishness of man
subverts his way <ruins his affairs>;
then his heart is resentful
and frets against the Lord. AMP

Hmm...
I don't often let my mind go that far
but.....
It is a reminder
of how quickly the little details in life
seem to get between me
and the Joy of Living as
a Son of the Most High God

Lord,
I bless You today
my Maker
and my Friend.

Thank You for the reminder that
I can be distracted
and even angry
about STUFF
that isn't even vaguely important...

Lord,
Thank YOU for the many
many blessings You pour into my life....
- family,
- work,
- Your amazing testimony in and through my life.

Thank You.
You just 'made my day'!
:)
