Filters

Our filters are something we begin to build into our life from a very early age. They interpret the world around us and let in only what we want.

Unfortunately our filters can distort the world around us. They can shift our perception of reality and may find us trusting in shadows and dismissing the light.

Filters change as we allow ourselves to become vulnerable. Old ones fall away and filters that are more hopeful, trustful, expectant, compassionate and forgiving begin to take their place.

We may still not see things exactly as they are, yet trusting in the lens of faith will open up the way we view the world around us and ultimately the way we view ourselves.
