Daily Gratitude Year 14-Day 167: Today, I am grateful for a second look.
This owl picture caught my eye. He is adorable. It reminded me of the power in perspective. Perspective is very much a part of daily life, including our faith journeys.
This little owl reminds us that there are different ways to change what we see. Sometimes, it is as easy as changing the level from which we are taking in the view. Photography uses perspective all of the time, often achieving it by a twist of the camera.
It is so easy to see things only from the spot that is familiar, comfortable, and easy. There are times we need to take another look. There is wisdom in looking from different angles and taking in different points of view.
"If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask God, who gives generously to all without reproach, and it will be given him." -James 1:5
A second look from a different viewpoint can fill in the holes in understanding. It might mean refocusing. I could mean finding clarity. It might cause us to pause and be prayerful, asking God for wisdom, which is always a good idea.
Today, I am grateful for a second look.
