Could changing your perspective change everything?

Episode recap:Start by writing down Matthew 6:22-23 (0:14)There are two ways to look at things; through the lens of light or of darkness (4:09)“We see things not as they are, but as we are.” (5:54)We try to play God instead of going to God and asking Him what is really going on (14:50)Only the Holy Spirit can tell us what is true (17:20) Choosing a healthy perspective is sometimes moment by moment (20:21)If you are being tempted to focus on darkness, it’s ok to put a boundary up (31:30)Go to God and pray, “Is what I am seeing real/true?” (33:40)We approach things based on our limited perspective and knowledge (36:19)There is danger in focusing so much on the dark that our eyes adjust and become comfortable in darkness.
