Perspective

"If we just worry about the big picture, we are powerless. So my secret is to start right away doing whatever little work I can do. I try to give joy to one person in the morning, and remove the suffering of one person in the afternoon. . . . That is the secret. Start right now."
~Sister Chan Khong

Affirmation
I do everything I can do today and leave the rest to God.
Meditation
Dear God, Thank You for this new day and the potential it contains. Of the many possibilities that present themselves, help me clearly discern Your assignments for me. I know that I cannot solve all the problems our world faces; But I can tend my corner of the garden. Help me not get overwhelmed by the bigger picture. I choose to do what I can do and leave the rest to You.
And so it is.
