How your focus changes everything

An amazing transformation takes place when God is no longer the enemy.

For so many years I stared down at my feet thinking, I am unworthy. I screw up. I can’t get it right.

Then one night I had a dream. In it, the sky parted, heaven began to appear, and I knew at the next moment I would see the face of God. I thought I would be afraid, but I wasn’t. Instead, I felt a different feeling—awe. Like standing on the edge of the Grand Canyon, only a thousand times more.

This is what God tries so hard to get us to do: to stop, to look heavenward, to forget ourselves, to get lost in the wonder of Him.

You get the fresh insights offered by Author Dwight Clough in his many books on personal and cultural transformation.
