Our niece Monica shared this Meme: "Don't think of it as losing an hour of sleep. Think of it as losing an hour of winter."
Now that is a change of perspective I can get behind.
I believe re-framing is a powerful brain tool, We cannot always change our situation or circumstances, we can choose our response. No one, no thing and no situation defeats us without our final permission.
Things many not always turn out as we hoped. Prayers may not be answered to our preferences, but they are always answered.
Our God is one to remind us of perspective. Many of our favorite miracles come with perspective changes. Ask Jonah... or Moses... or even Naomi after Ruth and Boaz gave her a baby to hold, Her sorrow turned to joy... in His time and according to His purpose.
"Faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see." Hebrews 11:1
A different point of view can come from the smallest changes in perspective, but the impact is powerful.
Today, I am grateful for a different point of view.
