This is not necessarily an every day all day kind of situation. My life is full of all kinds of moments day to day. Some are mundane, some are challenging, some are bright and cheery. But then I get that phone call or that memory or that whatever it is that makes me feel very small against the problem. For example:
I am live witness to a manifestation of sin and it saddens me. I hate when it is that in-my-face, run-me-over type manifestation. I feel helpless. I flail uselessly, recalling better times, wishing, praying wondering why. What a vain struggle. I give that overwhelming concern to the Lord. (I need to repeat this like an exercise, as it's not a One and Done kind of thing.) When my role or sphere of influence is non-existent or diminished The Lord can handle it and take it from here. His roles never change. Oh Hallelujah!
Note: In the scripture quoted below, my concept of the enemy is whatever situation that I'm dealing with that is "Just Not Right", not a person or spiritual entity.
"When the enemy comes in like a flood, The Spirit of the Lord will lift up a standard against him." Isaiah 59:19
