Last week, I was driving home from work after a "rough" day. It wasn't that anything horrible happened, just an off day. I started feeling rather dejected and started wondering why things weren't better. I had my iPod playing through my car speakers, and the song "No Problems" by the Crabb Family came on. It's funny how God works like that.
I had been going through all that had happened that day, and while it wasn't the best of circumstances, it had gotten me into this funk. But really? What problems did I have? Just because things weren't going exactly as I wanted didn't mean that I should be complaining or worried.
When you consider all that's going on in the world, I was sweating the small stuff. I love the line that says you are "acting like it's pouring when it's only raining." How often do I let little things bother me so much and blow them out of proportion? I'm guilty of complaining about these little things when I should be grateful for the many big things that God has given me.
It's hard when you are in the middle of a situation to take a step back and realize how small it is in the grand scheme of things. When this song came on, it really challenged me to think about the "problems" that I was facing really weren't problems at all. What I should be concentrating on was thinking about the blessings of God.
When the song came on, it was a reminder "to see of how good life's been for me." I pray today is full of "no problems" for you as well!
