There Are Always More Possibilities

We may look at the difficult circumstances of life and conclude that there is no way forward. It may seem we have exhausted all the possibilities for resolving the difficulty and making progress. But it’s helpful for us to know that possibilities still exist. Because we are human we have limitations. So, we always see only part of the full picture. There are options that we simply have not considered.

Ironically, we may actually close ourselves off to possibilities by believing there are no more possibilities available to us.

Let’s pray for God to open our eyes to ideas, approaches and potentiality that we do not yet see.

“There are always more possibilities than our eyes can see.” Laurie Beth Jones

Seeing The Beauty And Wonder of Life, Right Now

We’re all very busy, so, it escapes our attention that the “same old world” that we experience every day actually has a lot to notice, if we will slow down, open our eyes, pay attention and be fully present.  If we can’t see that life is interesting right now, it’s unlikely that we will see life as more interesting just because we go somewhere different tomorrow.
