What if you’re working really hard to solve a problem…but you’re answering the wrong question?
After spending a precious toddler nap trying—and failing—to move an incredibly comfortable loveseat through an office door, I started wondering if we could just shove it through the window.
Spoiler: We could not. 😂
But that ridiculous question changed the way I was thinking.
Sometimes we get so attached to how something should work that we keep pouring more effort into the same solution. We assume we need more discipline, a better routine, someone else to finally understand us, or the ability to make a particular plan work.
But what if we paused long enough to ask what we’re actually trying to create?
In this episode, we’re continuing our conversation about questioning our first interpretations and getting curious about what else might be going on. We’ll explore what this can look like in our routines, relationships, parenting, spiritual lives, and even the small ways we create more delight in our homes.
And we’ll come back to the invitation in James 1:5: when we need wisdom, we can ask God—who gives generously.
This isn’t about finding a clever life hack or assuming every hard situation has an easy workaround. It’s about loosening our grip on the solution we’ve already chosen long enough to pray:
God, what am I not seeing?
Sometimes the first idea won’t work.
Neither will the second.
But another question may help us recognize a faithful way forward we couldn’t see while staring at the same proverbial door.
Reflection question:
Where might you be working really hard to make one solution work when God may be inviting you to ask a different question?
Scripture: James 1:5
