I believe the quote is: We cannot see the forest for the trees.
All too often, we are searching for a particular answer or victory or outcome.
We fail to see the entire picture.
We may think we've failed at a relationship, but fail to see the incredible children and grandchildren that are a product of we "perceive" as a failure.
We may think want to be famous or some ground-breaking difference maker, but fail to realize that if we've impacted just ONE life - it is extraordinary gift to that ONE life.
We may want to see some specific result from our efforts, but don't understand that the actual outcome is a thousand times better.
Enjoy the forest!
It's a beautiful place!
