IT’S ALL ABOUT PERSPECTIVE

Isaiah 55:10 “For as the rain comes down, and the snow from heaven, And do not return there, But water the earth, And make it bring forth and bud, That it may give seed to the sower and bread to the eater,

Whenever there are grains of wheat, while the sower sees them as seed, the eater sees it as bread. Both of them are right, it’s all a matter of perspective. Thus many different outcomes are possible from the same circumstance.

Even in God, there are many names and tributaries. You can perceive him as provider and receive your needs, another will see him as protector and find shelter in His safety. Again, both are right. However, they have to come to a realization that their individual perspectives is not all there is about God.

That is why you cannot box all outcomes solely on the basis of your experience. It’s very similar to the use of medications in medicine: morphine is a potent pain relief, but it can also be used in managing breathlessness. It’s all a matter of perspective and knowledge about the medication.

The conclusions we draw in all circumstances are thus only definite and finite as far as the body of information available to you goes. Hence, you have to be open to learning what you don’t know. That will sometimes mean stepping outside the sphere of your knowledge pool and humbling yourself to learn from others. “Teachability “is an pre-requisite trait in our walk with God and men. So don’t let pride get in the way of your learning.
