100 Blessings Every Day
Fear and panic distort our ability to think clearly. Decisions made in haste are often ones that we come to regret. Trouble is trouble enough. We don’t have to make things worse by letting it overwhelm us. Situations that seem so terribly urgent may just be God’s way of telling us that we are too hung up at the moment.
Addicted people tend to be hard on themselves. We were born in a hurry and have an itchy trigger finger when it comes to pushing the panic button. We need to learn that “one step at a time” isn’t just the way to go through the program; it’s a good way to go through life. We live in a hurried society, but we don’t have to buy into that craziness any more than necessary. We are the keepers of our own internal time clock. And if that clock is running too fast, it isn’t working right. If we do the best we can, and have a little faith that things will work out for the best, we might find that they do. Taking a calm, measured approach to life may not come easy to us, but it is possible-and it does work. See for yourself.
