When there are many problems

There are enough problems — big and small — that we can spend all of our time in distress ... feeling overwhelmed and frustrated.

But it’s also possible for us to focus on just one problem — something worthy of our attention — and to bring the best of our skills and talents to bear upon that issue. To not throw our hands up in despair saying, “There’s too much. I can’t do it all,” but to open our hands and hearts and to say, “Here’s what I can do, and here’s how I can help."
