As we go through the typical rush of a Monday - trying to get up after a late football game, catching up on mountains of email from the weekend and meeting deadlines -- it's so easy to get bogged down in ourselves and our needs.
We are on a mission and can't deal with any person or situation standing in our way.
"Are they doing this on purpose just to ruin my day?" we sometimes ask ourselves. We know the answer is obvious, yet we still lose patience like the world is out to crap on our Cornflakes.
When I saw this video today, which I am sure has been "out there" awhile, it was a perfect reminder that no matter what we're going through -- slow lines at the store, too many red lights, a slow Internet connection -- someone is always going through something. And it is often worse.
Take a few minutes to watch this.

Even without a pair of "God's Glasses" and even without knowing exactly what someone is struggling with, we know we should do something to help. Ask yourselves: How can we love someone like Jesus today?
The answer is simple. Don't judge people. Be kind. Be courteous. And silence that one-sided snobby committee in your head and just listen.
God is always giving us clues. And we don't need special glasses to see or hear them!
Get it?
