Ulog: WHAT DO YOU SEE?....Perception

Hello Fellow Steemians, I will like to share few of my church mind (thought) with you today and I hope you find it motivating and educative
The bible says;

Furthermore, because we are united with Christ, we have received an inheritance from God, for he chose us in advance, and he makes everything work out according to his plan. Ephesians 1:11 (NLT)

Checkout this story below:

The Grand Canyon is a steep-sided canyon carved by the Colorado River in the U.S. state of Arizona in North America. Three people were visiting and viewing the Grand Canyon - an artist, a pastor, and a cowboy. As they stood on the edge of that massive geological marvel, each one responded with a cry of exclamation.

The artist said, "Ah, what a beautiful scene to paint!" The minister cried, "What a beautiful example of the handiwork of God!" The cowboy mused, "What a terrible place to lose a cow!" Its all a matter of perspective. The cowboy could only see the problems the Grand Canyon placed in front of him and not the beauty that the others saw. THE END

Lesson from the above story

Sometimes we act like the cowboy in the story above; we choose to focus on what is not working and what might likely go wrong, rather than the many things that could go right. We need to realize that in the bustle of daily living, the problems and issues that confront and challenge our self-worth are all part of the growth process.

Pearls are produced as an Oyster tries to protect itself from foreign substances. We need to step back and look at where we fit into GOD's plan. This will enable us to see not only the present, but what GOD has embedded in the midst of all that's happening.

Remember that

"Control your perception and don't let your perception controls you.

The way you want to see it is the you will perceive it first within before the outer manifestation. Everything starts from inside.It is what you call it.
