The Little Stuff

I just read something that reminded me that what I'm doing isn't for me, for my daily entertainment or satisfaction but for something much bigger. So often I look for the moments in my days that will say "you're doing the right thing," or "its all worth it." Well, of course those moments are important but so much more of my time is spent doing stuff that feels pretty mundane. And useless. Because no matter how much laundry I fold or dishes I clean or how often I sweep crumbs off the floor I'm going to have to do it all over again tomorrow. Or maybe even five minutes from now. Ugh! I know we ALL do this, its what life is when you're a grown up. And that's fine, we just do it and try not to think on it too much, right? Well, there's a purpose to every moment and God sees it even when we don't. So thanks to the author of this blog who reminded me of that today.
