Be patient with yourself
To a youth a few months seem long.
To an adult a few years seem long.
To an old person decades seem short.
The old person is closest to God.
To God decades are seconds,
Centuries minutes.
To him eternity is every moment.
Be patient with yourself;
Think like God.

God thinks in generations. Its through out scripture. You are right- we get caught up in seconds or hours, while God is teaching us to think in Generations and eternity. This life is less than 1 trillionith or the time I will exist. A bigger perspective rings true to my spirit just as "dont sweat the small stuff" does. A truth that is woven through out the universe.
God and my life is bigger than I think.
