                                  Eyes of Light
Luke 11:34
Your eye is a lamp for your body.  A pure eye lets
sunshine into your soul.  But an evil eye shuts out
the light and plunges you into darkness.  (NLT)

     Some say that the eye is a window into the soul, because as created human beings we learn much by what we see, for it is then stored in the brain. We also learn with our ears and that, too, is stored in our memory banks. Children see and hear their parents do things and often follow suit. Even as adults we often pattern our lives after those we look upon. What we read, watch, listen to and associate with, shapes our character and determines how we live our lives. What is focused on is what controls us.  Those who focus upon the world and its fallen ways live for themselves and to look good in the eyes of other people. We live in an evil world that blinds the eye, prohibiting the saving Light of the Son into our souls.  And the darker the persons soul, the more likely it is that they will be led (like a lamb to be slaughtered) through the darkness that leads into an even deeper darkness that is eternal.  But those who focus on God are being filled with the Son Light of eternal life that pleases, honors, and glorifies God, and He honors and glorifies them in return. 
     Satan has darkened the hearts and minds and souls of most people, who are just trying to survive the chaos as their purpose.  The world and its unseen evil forces are hardening hearts and poisoning minds with lies and trash that are leading most people away from God and deeper into a darkness that only gets darker. But there is hope, for there is still time to get out before it's too late. The Son is still shining brightly for those who want to find the way out.  An open eye will let the bright Son Light in, my friend, and it is pure and safe and will lead you straight into the arms of Jesus, where He will heal your wounds, comfort your soul, give you peace, and carry you safely Home.

                                        A Whisper of Hope
See the Light, dear child?...It is still shining through the darkness of your world.  Let it navigate you through this dark and evil world that is not your Home.  There is yet, much more life to be lived when My Light is shining through your eyes.

2 Corinthians 4:4
Satan, the god of this evil world, has blinded the minds
of those who don't believe, so they are unable to see the
glorious Light of the Good News that is shining upon
them. They don't understand the message we preach
about the glory of Christ, who is the exactlikeness of God.  (NLT)

               May the LORD lift up His countenance 
                   upon you and give you peace.
                                (Numbers 6:25)
