Have you ever taken a photo that looked okay on your phone, but when you zoomed in, it was blurry or out of focus? That’s what life feels like sometimes. We try to make sense of what we see around us—our disappointments, our setbacks, our struggles—but we’re zoomed in too close to see the full picture.
When we only look at what’s right in front of us, life can feel confusing, painful, and unfair. But God invites us to adjust our focus—to look beyond what’s seen and temporary, and instead, to fix our eyes on what is unseen and eternal.
Perspective doesn’t change the situation, but it does change how we go through it.
