When we look at our lives through our eyes we can only see what is visibly available to us. We are impacted by the colors, shapes, depth, distance, attention level, and so much more. With all the elements we can be influenced it is easy to conceive that we are often hindered by our line of sight. Then there are the elements not impacting our eyes but the interpretations we place on the information provided by our eyes. We see things based on past experiences, expectations, and similarity. None of these have to do with the actual function of sight but it impact what we tell others and ourselves that we are seeing. I find it helpful to ask God to help my sight. I ask to see as God sees because I am aware that my sight is hindered and amplified by so many factors that I may be missing something essential. It is humbling to admit that our sight doesn’t work like a camera or a video but maybe it was not meant to. Perhaps it is about embracing the fluidity of sight and not overplaying its value. God wants us to open the sight of our hearts and sometimes what we see or think we see with our eyes keep us from being willing to do so.
Be From Sight!
on August 27, 2017My prayer for us is the courage to humbly ask to be given the sight of our heart today.
