A CHANGE IN PERSPECTIVE

Numbers 21:5 And the people spoke against God and against Moses: “Why have you brought us up out of Egypt to die in the wilderness? For there is no food and no water, and our soul loathes this worthless bread.”

With the Israelites as we read about in scripture, you could find yourself in a guessing game, unable to really tell the version of themselves which will show up. Today, we get a version of them who managed to push the buttons of God so much that they got a significant response.

Picture this “for a nation who had been eating manna for nearly 40 years, what suddenly triggered their description of the same thing” as worthless”. What changed? The manna had not, and still tasted like honey wafers as from the beginning. However, their perspective of it had shifted. The food of sustenance was now deemed worthless.

Here is the lesson: anything, anyone and anywhere can lose their value in your eyes the very moment you alter your perspective about it. This can have a two fold impact:
1. Where the change in perspective is to see its worth, it births a deeper sense of value recognition.
2. You can also equally fail to see the good in anything, anyone or any where when your perspectives change.

Simply put, it takes a shift of consciousness and perspective to impact your recognition of value or not.
