No doubt, we all struggle with believing everything.
Sometimes anything.
Too many angles, not enough facts,
and we wind up just walking away.
From truth. Right. Wrong. Falsehoods.
Where, how, why, when, what, and who?
Anything. Everything.
Politics. Business. Family. Even friends.

Everything we read dates itself
To what was accepted in the past
But the world has changed. Words. Feelings.
What was okay is now wrong.
What was wrong? History is repainted.
How do we change? Why?
When did everything become unbelievable?

I’ve set my eyes on things of the Lord
Looking for ways to see things better.
No one can hurt me unless I give them the power
But I can be offended with the best of them.
If I choose so.
It’s my choice how to view the world.
My worldview must be God-centered, not worldly.
That’s what gets me through. Day. Weeks. Months.
Every year after year.

That’s how I stay focused and centered.
God based, God focused, past, present and future.
