God created us full of possibility.  The opportunities for our lives has no boundary.  We get stuck because we can only see so far.  We are confined by the limits of our imagination.  Our imagination can grow if we allow ourselves the chance to stop editing it while it wanders.  While we may engage our imagination in the process of life, we quickly talk it down from our mind because of our perceived limits. We need assistance to step outside our boundaries of what is possible.  We need a willing partner to  assist us in letting ourselves wonder just for the sake of wondering.  It is not about living in some fantasy land.  We can be fully grounded in reality and still create space for imagination.  God’s assistance is given to us in the capability to question.   Questioning our thinking is the first step to expanding our horizons.  A spiritual teacher of mine once pointed out that Jesus often asked questions.  If Jesus is the embodiment of the Almighty, why would he ask questions?  The questions were not for him, they were for his followers.  He was assisting them in dealing with situations by inviting them to step outside of what they thought they already knew was possible.  We can engage our imagination and open up to what is possible if we utilize God’s assistance and question what we think we know.  I struggle with using my imagination as I grew up believing it had to have the right answer.  And then God comes to my assistance and asks, “Is it a struggle or just unfamiliar?“
