I am God. Today I will be handling all of your problems. Please remember that I do not need your help. If life happens to deliver a situation to you that you cannot handle, do NOT attempt to resolve it. Kindly put it in the SFGTD (something for God to do) box. All situations will be resolved, but in MY time, not yours. Once the matter is placed in the box, do not hold onto it by worrying about it. Instead focus on all the wonderful things that are present in your life right now.
If you find yourself stuck in traffic; don’t despair. There are people in this world for whom driving is an unheard of privilege.
Should you have a bad day, where problems just seem to follow you around; think of all aborted babies who never even had a chance to breathe, let alone live long enough to have a bad day.
Should you have a day where it seems that your family is constantly in your way or things aren’t just going right between you and them; think of the person who has never known what it is like to love and be loved in return.
Should your car break down, leaving you miles away from assistance; think of the paraplegic who would love the opportunity to take that walk.
Should you notice that new grey hair in the mirror; think of the cancer patient in chemo who wishes she had hair to examine.
If hundreds or even thousands of miles selfishly separate you from dear friends and/or family; remember that some people in the world do not even know the whereaboutsof the people they love, because those individuals are serving our country somewhere.
Should you find yourself at a loss and pondering what life is all about, asking “What is my purpose?” Be thankful. There are those who didn’t live long enough to get the opportunity.
Should you find yourself agitated, depressed, hurt, upset, sad, lonely, or lost; remember things could be worse. You could be one of “them” who have it even worse than you do.
Don’t ever forget to thank God for what He has given you and don’t be afraid to look at hard circumstances from a new perspective-God’s perspective.
