addressing frustration

How often when I find myself whining or feeling frustrated, it is really about things that are not so important. Today we have been car shopping...one of my least favorite activities. 

But when I think more rationally, I have to be so grateful that I have the resources to make car shopping possible. Then the Web, which rather overwhelms with information, does allow me to research cars (two serious issues have saved me from two cars that seemed fine until I did my research) and I can check out lots of cars from the privacy of my own home. Such checking, however, did not prepare me for the number of small cars that are designed so I can not see the front of the car from the driver's seat! We need more short female engineers in the automotive industry.

So we shall keep looking and make a serious commitment to keeping the blessings in focus while we persevere.

All Knowing and Everywhere Present God, thank you for the blessings of resources, health and many choices. Help me to be a patient and reasonable consumer, keeping my frustration checked that my Pastor might not be disconcerted if he overheard my conversation. Help me to trust that You know perfectly my needs and will match them with the resources You so generously provide. AMEN
