Motion sickness provides a powerful metaphor for finding spiritual steadiness in a chaotic world, revealing how cognitive dissonance between stillness and movement creates disorientation in both physical and spiritual realms.
• Personal experience with car sickness when reading comics as a passenger but never when driving
• Scientific explanation: motion sickness occurs when eyes focus on stillness while body experiences movement
• Apple's "vehicle motion cues" feature provides peripheral dots that move with the vehicle, reducing dissonance
• Spiritual parallel: we experience dissonance between focusing on unchanging truths while living in rapidly changing times
• Spiritual "dots" like wisdom, community rhythms, and mentors help us stay oriented without overriding truth
• Psalm 46:10 teaches that stillness is internal awareness of God even during external motion
• Wisdom comes from using spiritual orientation tools without fearing change
Keep your eyes focused on what you know is true, things that are greater than you. Don't move in fear. Use the dots to stay clear in a moving world.
