SHIFTs Happen

Sometimes we can become accustomed to settling without even realizing that we’re doing so.  Life happens. Trauma is real.  But so is the power of our mind.

Often when hearing of how life has beat someone down.  Somewhere in the conversation these words usually surface… “I have no choice.”  To which I ask, “Why do you believe that to be so?”

My question is usually followed by a stare that silently communicates “Did she not hear what I said? or  Who is this lady anyway?  I giggle because I am accustomed to this response.  So, I smile and wait for the answer.

Why this question?  Why wait for an answer? Because in the wait something shifts.  That something is usually the mindset of the person being asked the question.

There is almost always another way out of every situation.  The key is being still long enough to allow your mind to be renewed in truth. 

This week’s challenge:

When you find yourself in a sticky situation.  Take a moment to quiet your thoughts through prayer.  I am sure you will find a new resolution, and that this shift in your thoughts about the situation will produce a far greater outcome.
