We went to a beautiful wedding last night and caught up with friends. One friend happens to be my favorite photographer of all time, even though she no longer does this as a career. She mentioned how she could not help but see through eyes of a photographer. She considered angles and lighting while celebrating as a guest. Once you start seeing the world through a certain lens, it takes a great amount of work to retrain your mind. I hope she never stops.

This also gave me great hope for all of us. With enough intentional work and focus, we can learn a new way to see others and ourselves. Our great enemy, satan, has worked from the beginning of time to distort our vision. When we become aware of the lens we are using, we need to ask ourselves if it is true or false. Sometimes we need others to help us correct what has become normal for us. It is changing me greatly.
