How does perspective aid in restoration? By bringing a different lens to what isn't viewable. In this solo episode host Sondra Doty shares a few stories on how perspective brought healing and restoration in her life.

Consider what happens when one begins to wear glasses: First, they get used to them and then even dependent on them. And then there's all the checkups – where there could be a major prescription adjustment. Sondra, a glasses wearer since 8th grade, has noticed when a prescription goes up and she got the new glasses, it's like, "Well, hello! I didn't know how clear things could be!"

We get so used to how the old lens aided us, we don't see what's missing.

During restoration we don't always see the redemption coming or notice it when it arrives. Why? Because we are so focused on the old lens. That could be wounds, pain, circumstances, … you name it. And the old lens can lead us to tell ourselves, "It's just always going to be this way, … here we go again, … why me?"

What if we were to stop and ask God to bring us perspective we need? Asking Him could bring out the details (perhaps a "new lens") and renewal. God brings a totally different perspective! Especially when we can't see the seemingly impossible. With God all things are possible!
