Then Caleb silenced the people before Moses and said, “We should go up and take possession of the land, for we can certainly do it.”
Numbers 13:30-31
Have you ever noticed how different people can see the same thing but interpret it totally differently?
It’s like Joshua and Caleb in this Bible verse where they saw the same enemy, but Caleb was like, “We can totally take these dudes!” while the others were all scared and stuff.
Their different interpretations come from their way of thinking and values, which are formed by how they react to every little thing in their lives.
Our reactions can be heard in the words we say to ourselves. If we’re always complaining, that’s gonna influence our perspective and actions.
But if we take a step back and listen to our thoughts objectively, we can choose to see things differently.
We might be too caught up in worrying about the future or dwelling on the past to see things clearly, but walking with God can help us focus on the present and see things from a more positive perspective.
When we start seeing the little things in our lives as opportunities instead of obstacles, we can make big changes that bring us joy and fulfillment.
