Personal Words by Jack Rushton:

My vision of life.  This is a very good question and reminds me of when I was on a talk radio show in Southern California many years ago.  The  moderator asked me, "Jack, do you believe God brought the wave that broke your neck or was is it just an accident?"  My response was that I had not spent any significant amount of time wondering why what happened to me actually happened, but that I leaned toward the idea that it was just an accident.  I went on to say that the one thing I knew for sure is that we have a kind, loving, Heavenly Father, who will help us to deal with whatever life may bring our way if we have sufficient faith in Him and his goodness.
 
20 years after my accident I still feel this way.  Living in a world of natural law and with our agency, things can happen that may seem unfair to us with our limited vision but it is all just part of mortality.  Faith is the ingredient that will help pull us through whatever life may bring our way.  I guess in a word my vision of life is that "we must live by faith."

Jack makes a point of how unjust life seems when we depend upon our limited vision. How many of us have felt this way at some time or another? We do not need to wait for things to get better; they already are if we change our vision.

They already are if we change our outlook.

If we face the challenges, our vision will expand; however, if we complain about life's summons we attempt to hide from them, thus abandoning the opportunity for greater understanding and insight.

If we allow our vision to increase we will reap more out of life and discover it's stairway to secrets!!
