Open the Eyes of my Heart


There are times I'm aware there's more to our surroundings than meets the eye. Can one view the microscopic dust that travels through the air we breathe, or see the different prisms of light as the sun rises over the sky?

But when problems and duties fog my sight that I become like a cart-drawing horse with wedges beside my eyes, I become desensitized.

My only cure is to pause and rest, reflect on God and his awesome creation. My prayer: open the eyes of my heart Lord that I may see You, know You... and love You more.

2 Kings 6:17
And Elisha prayed, "O LORD, open his eyes so he may see." Then the LORD opened the servant's eyes, and he looked and saw the hills full of horses and chariots of fire all around Elisha.
