There is no use in merely saying that everything will be all right. Thinking rightly, of course, means putting God into all your affairs and expecting him to change them. For example, if you are living in a shack it is not any good pretending that it is a palace. Cheap optimism is never spiritual. Realize that you are living in a shack, but claim the Presence of God to guide you to something better.
Teach me the way, O Lord, and lead me in a plain path … (Psalm 27:11).
The first step to changing our reality is to face the truth about the good and the bad. Until we have excavated the truth from under our rationalizations and fears we are doomed to repeat those things that limit and hurt us.
There is no better time than Holy week to dig deep, survey our reality and visualize our best future. Then, whether we see a shack or a palace, we will see clearly and can then navigate to that abode built by God for us. The first step is to say, Teach me the way, Lord and show me the plain truth.
Seeing clearly,
