Monday's Message of Hope

Reverse the Lens!
Monday, May 30, 2022 by Penelope Kaye

Hello, dear friend

In church today, my pastor made a statement, and when I heard it, I knew it was this week’s message—Reverse the lens. That sentence contains so much revelation, it’s hard to know where to start.

To begin, we can get so used to looking at our circumstances one way that we close our hearts and minds to other possibilities. However, when we reverse the lens and view things from a different perspective, fresh options can open up to us.

Another dilemma arises when we simply get stuck in a rut. We trudge along, day in and day out, not expecting anything different. Yet, when we reverse the lens, we can see a new path brimming with opportunities.

One more area to look at involves our emotions. When we let our feelings rule our actions, we can be blinded to the truth. But once we reverse the lens, we can see new ways to handle the circumstances.

The last area to cover, unfortunately, deals with any rebellion we knowingly or unwittingly walk in. It can, and does, happen to all of us at one time or another, as much as we don’t want to . Still, once we reverse the lens and choose obedience, God opens doors we didn’t know were there.

I don’t know about you, but I have more than one area in my life that I need to reverse the lens. I plan on asking the Lord to help me do just that. I hope you join me.

Below are some questions to reflect and/or journal. Feel free to share your thoughts—I would love to hear from you.

  • Do you have any areas where you need to reverse the lens?
  • Are there some practical things you can do to reverse the lens?
  • How will this impact your faith walk?

The statutes of the Lord are right, rejoicing the heart; The commandment of the Lord is pure, enlightening the eyes . . . (Psalm 19:8, NKJV)

Have a hope-filled week with a new lens!

Giving myself permission to check out a different place to live, knowing I will not fail or disobey the Lord. He will guide, teach and deliver us if we make a mistake. After many trials recently, we need to rest! Praising Him for it all! After 57 years of marriage, every decision is critical now.
