A 30-second film was showing .....
.....six people playing basketball, three in white shirts and three in black.
Volunteers were asked to count how many times the white shirt team passes the ball.
At the end of the film, they were asked if they saw anything unusual.
Most did not......
The unusual thing is: halfway through the film, a man wearing a gorilla suit walked through the players, beaten his chest to the camera, and then walked off.......
"When shown the film again, people were utterly surprised to see him, to the extent that they often believe a different film had been substituted for the original one.
Their focus on one task had blinded them to a truth.
"This film trick illustrates a simple fact—that if we are only looking for one thing, we do not usually see, -anything different.
The point at which people finally see the unexpected (Recognize Hidden Opportunities) is what is called a 'gorilla moment.'
So often in life people see ONLY what they want to see, & don't see what they don't want or need to see.....
Have you had any "gorilla moments" lately?
Have you seen God in your surroundings, in the love of those who love and accept you; in the myriad of Blessings we all receive every day?
Have you seen God in your present circumstances, or heard what he is trying to say to you in your disappointments, your financial setback, or your 'emotional losses'......?
"I lift up my eyes to the hills—where does my help come from? My help comes from the Lord, the Maker of heaven and earth." Ps 121:1~2
Ask God, to Please Help.........
......In seeing & experiencing the wonder of His' handy-work in all of nature as well as in the everyday issues of life.
.......'Open my eyes, Lord; I want to see Jesus, ....To reach out and touch Him and say that I love Him.
.......Open my ears, Lord; help me to listen!
.......Open my eyes, Lord; I want to see Jesus!'
Shalom
Impressions ....to Ponder on? These 'writings'represent the "person behind the eyes" These are merely 'Glimpses in my Soul' of some of the things I do treasure, & care for.... Breathings of my Heart..' Die oorsprong hiervan kom uit 'n verskeidenheid van bronne. Enersyds is dit herinneringe oor 'wat belangrik is', -vir eie gebruik. Andersyds kan andere wat dit van waarde vind ook dit hulle s'n maak.Type TOPIC in, -below at "Search"
