Most things in life aren’t a big deal – people just make them into a big deal.
If we could just turn the other cheek and leave things alone instead of brewing on them, how quickly would they pass? If little
things were just pushed aside and our attention was kept on God, how
much turmoil would we be able to snuff out before it got started?
There’s a time to deal with problems and a peaceful and graceful way to
do it, but giving our attention to something that doesn’t require it
takes our energies and devotion away from where they should be. A
consistent need to have our hands in little things like this may reveal
lack of trust in God and an unhealthy desire to control the world around
us.
Your thoughts are precious avenues to exalt the Lord
Jesus Christ and your actions follow your thoughts. If something is
worthy of your attention let the Lord guide you in it. If it’s not
worthy of your attention, let it go!
