Living Frustrated

Everyone has opportunities to get upset and be frustrated every single day.

Sometimes it’s the little things — we can’t find the car keys, traffic is backed up, somebody was rude, or what should have taken an hour ends up taking four hours. Something happened and now you are frustrated and all bent out of shape. There will always be something that can sour your day, but if you are going to be successful, you have to maintain the right approach. You can’t let the little things trip us up. In other words, don’t let the little things in life stop what God has planned for your future. I’ve heard it said, “Life is 10% what happens to you and 90% how you respond.” Make sure you respond to life with a positive attitude and the right perspective. Sure, things may irritate you, but don’t let that irritation last into the next moment. Let it go. Don’t try to control everything around you. Instead, release it to God knowing that His plans are for your good. Are you prepared for the best season of your life?
