Vantage

The black bump on the stone wall I walked was a curiosity.  What was it?  Why was it there?  Did it have a purpose or was it simply random?  The questions went unanswered until the day I stopped and examined them from different vantage points.  

The discovery of the answer triggered a surprising wave of emotions.  I have a fear of heights.  For me, when I am on the top of a building, a mountain top, or the edge of anything with height, a tsunami of fear, uncertainty, and doubts hits.  When I was young, it was initially directed at others, fear for them.  As I grew older, my fear expanded to include my physical being as well as my heart.

With my fears triggered a vantage point as a backdrop, a reflection sits with me as the day begins.  My curiosity led me to my fears.  In my willingness to understand my fears, I found myself in a new place of awareness.  Today is a frame that brings the reflection to life.

One’s view, influenced by emotions, line of sight, and perspective at the moment, can trigger a way of emotions.  In accepting my state of being and staying with my pursuit, I found myself in a place of understanding.  I did not know if I would get to where I did.  Uncertainty is a two-sided friend.  It invites curiosity in for the journey even as it brings doubts and fears along for the ride.  As I pushed through, I found myself aware, informed, and hopeful. 

Emotions exist in a space of inequality.  At any given moment, one may dominate.  However, they are not all equal.  Each has the weight and gravitas that I give it.  Fear enjoys dominating my life.  Equally so, with my embrace, Hope can vanish fear in an instant.  When love, acceptance, and belonging are close, I am certain that “None of this fazes us because Jesus loves us.” (Romans 8.37). In the evil versus good battle, light inevitably dominates the dark night of one’s soul.

I see today with Hope.
