Wayne W. Dyer Quote

I love the healing parable of Jesus and the blind man. As he went along he saw a man blind from birth, his disciples asked him, Rabbi, who sinned? This man or his parents, that he was born blind?     Neither this man nor his parents sinned, said Jesus, but this happened so that the work of God might be displayed in his life. We have been trained to think in terms of sin and punishment. These ideas disempower us by stressing that we are weak and wrong. The empowering way is to view trials as lessons and opportunities to choose differently. We can transcend the odious notion of being sinners cloaked in guilt, awaiting punishment. To access a spiritual solution to a problem involves focusing on the idea of a solution.
