A Little Vision Correction

Hello, dear one. It’s been a while.

Life has felt like a bit of a swirl lately. I wonder if you can relate. When things that once felt sure and certain begin to give way, you find yourself in unfamiliar territory. Unsure. Maybe a little unsafe. And it doesn’t feel great.

Well, that’s where I’ve been.

The God who loves me more than I love me decided He wouldn’t let me settle for the good things I had. He insists on giving His best. Sounds good, doesn’t it? But we don’t always receive His best willingly. Sometimes, we fight it. Hard.

And although I didn’t recognize it at the time, that’s what my heart was doing. Fighting, even while I thought I was yielding.

And that, dear one, is why community is so important to God’s plans, to receiving His best for us. The people He lovingly joins us to can help us receive from Him and see the things we’ve been unable to see through our broken or filtered lenses.

So that’s why I’m here. I want to help you recognize your own broken lenses, so that you too can receive His best. After all,

“Your eye is the lamp of your body. When your eye is healthy, your whole body is full of light, but when it is bad, your body is full of darkness.” Luke 11:34

According to Jesus, how we view things directly influences what we experience. If we see it the right way, through the lens of truth (God’s perspective), light will fill us, releasing its kingdom fruit (love, joy, peace, rest…). On the other hand, if we’re looking through a bad lens, darkness fills us. You’re probably very familiar with its fruit.

Anxiety. Fear. Depression. Sadness. Isolation. Insignificance. Hopelessness.

The list goes on. If you and I want to experience the blessings of the light, we must view things in the light of truth and let Jesus rewrite our false perceptions.

So, this is an invitation to walk with me into some of the truths God has revealed to me, the places He’s shifted my perspective so my vision could align with His. There’s power in the light, dear one. Fellowship. And Freedom.

And best of all, the love we discover as we encounter the true nature of the God who made us.
