Seeing Eyes
Psalm 123:1
Unto You I lift
up my eyes,
O You who dwell in the heavens. (NKJ)
Because we are God created,
finite human beings, we tend to look beyond ourselves for something or someone
that we can look up to—someone greater with whom we can rely on to inspire or
encourage us while we live in this difficult world that is getting even more
difficult as the days go by. For those of us who have our Lord God and Savior,
Christ Jesus, as that Someone we can look up to and rely on to inspire,
encourage and give us hope, we are blessed with spiritual eyes—eyes that see
through the darkness that this fallen world wants us to be trapped in—a
darkness of lies that is created by the leader of Hell’s fallen angels. Christians are utterly filled with
thanksgiving and praise to the Lord our God, because there are billions of
spiritually blind people in this world that cannot see beyond the world they
are trapped in and trying to make sense of. There are so many lost souls who,
because of ignorance or pride, are more inclined to look inward for some hidden
inner strength. There are still other
discouraged souls who look downward at the futility of it all and simply give
up. And what's left are people who will
look everywhere they can, rather than looking upward to the Living God who knows
and sees all things visible and invisible.
If God is your last option,
you may not see Him at first glance, but with persistent gazing upwards into
the heavenly realms in search of Him, God will, in His own time and His own
way, open the spiritual eyes of your heart and you will find the absolute Truth
in the Living God—the only One who can rescue you from the hopelessness that we
all face without God in our lives. Our
God is very real, my friends, and He resides in the hearts of all His believing
people. How blessed we are that our God
is always Home, always watching, and always waiting for you to walk through His
door. He is always there where you are,
because He is your Sovereign Keeper; the One who never sleeps and is always
alert. The Almighty, Sovereign God is
the infinite Watchful One who has eyes that see it all and the powers to fix it
all.
A
Whisper of Hope
I see it all,
My child…nothing is hidden from Me. When
you look up to Me for truth and resolve, you are looking in the right place,
for I Am your Creator and the Keeper of your soul. You need only look up into the heavens to
find the help and hope you need. I Am
always Home and ready to help.
Isaiah 55:6-7
Seek the LORD
while you can find Him. Call on Him now
while His is near.
Let the people
turn from their wicked deeds. Let them
banish from their minds
the very
thought of doing wrong! Let them turn to
the LORD that He may have
mercy on
them. Yes, turn to our God, for He will
abundantly pardon. (NLT)
The LORD is watching everywhere, keeping His
eye
on both the evil and the good.
(Proverbs 15:3)
