Constricts our ability to see our possible options.

God never ceases working, anointing you with everything you need to prosper through your challenges.”

I like the wording “apparent problem”. When we open to our divine inner workings, we become aware that problems can become opportunities when viewed from the perspective of our own God given resourcefulness. It is our refusal to see the nature of the choice that is presented through the “problematic event” that constructs our possible options at the moment. Refusal has roots in fear, shame, anger, and the like. It blinds us to the resourcefulness of heart, mind and soul. It is first stage in addressing our grief stirred by the existence of suffering that appears to block this particular path. As we embrace the reality that is before us, we can begin then to open our eyes to the potential within us.
