"It's important to look at things from God's point of view" -- 1 Corinthians 4:6 / MSG
If a temporary loss of perspective has left you worried, exhausted, or both, it is time to readjust your thought patterns. Negative thoughts are habit-forming; thankfully, so are positive ones. With practice, you can form the habit of focusing on God's priorities and your possibilities. When you do, you will soon discover that you will spend less time fretting about your challenges and more time praising God for His gifts.
When you call upon the Lord and prayerfully seek His will, He will give you wisdom and perspective. When you make God's priorities your priorities, He will direct your steps and calm your fears. So today and every day hereafter, pray for a sense of balance and perspective. And remember: no problems are too big for God - and that includes yours!

"Earthly fears are no fears at all. Answer the big question of eternity, and the little questions of life fall into perspective" -- Max Lucado

Lord, sometimes, the world's perspective can lead us astray. Help us, Lord, to see the world through Your eyes. Give us guidance and wisdom. And keep us every mindful, Father, that Your realty is the ultimate reality, and that Your truth is the ultimate truth, now and forever
