We can grow in our awareness of just how influential we can be simply by being mindful.
A wrestling match
If you see your deep questions about life, about purpose, about suffering, about God as a wrestling match with God himself, how does this impact your view of the eventual outcome?
Put down the rocks and work!

one of dumbfounded power
grace
joy
a bulwark of solidity…

Maybe the best way to see the world comes from our willingness to walk on water.
