Hey all,
Hope you are having a great week and have sunny skies! Now my title is for a good reason. I am going to talk about eyes and how so many are blessed to see. If you have never heard Brandon Heath's totally awesome song "Give me your eyes" you can scroll to my green playlist on the bottom of my blog and listen to it while you read this post.
Here is the lyrics:
Looked down from a broken sky
Traced out by the city lights
My world from a mile high
Best seat in the house tonight
Touched down on the cold black top
Hold on for the sudden stop
Breath in the familiar shock
Of confusion and chaos
All those people going somewhere,
Why have I never cared?
Chorus:
Give me your eyes for just one second
Give me your eyes so I can see
Everything that I keep missing
Give me your love for humanity
Give me your arms for the broken hearted
Ones that are far beyond my reach.
Give me your heart for the ones forgotten
Give me your eyes so I can see
Yeah Yeah
Step out on a busy street
See a girl and our eyes meet
Does her best to smile at me
To hide what's underneath
There's a man just to her right
Black suit and a bright red tie
Too ashamed to tell his wife
He's out of work
He's buying time
All those people going somewhere
Why have I never cared?
Chorus
I've Been there a million times
A couple of million eyes
Just moving past me by
I swear I never thought that I was wrong
Well I want a second glance
So give me a second chance
To see the way you see the people all along
Chorus (x2)
Brandon Heath is asking God to give him a heavenly viewpoint of this world. Can you imagine what its like from God's eyes? He cares about everyone and everything.
Have you ever thanked God for your eyes? What about your vision. Almost everyone is born with eyes, but not all are born to see. Like Helen Keller, some will never see a sunset, a waterfall, or their mommy and daddy's faces. Don't take your vision for granted. God gave it to you as a gift just as He gave you life!
Praise Him, thank Him, all ye little Children, God is love. God is love! <3
Blessings and love,
Butterfly
