Great post today on the Cycleguy’s Spin about “eye” disease. I hope you’ll read it. My reaction is below.
where are your eyes
and how do you see
do you have God’s perspective
or are you blind like me
my vision is blurry
and my view is obscured
when i see through my own eyes
instead of His word
i often lose focus
my eyes off the goal
looking backward regretfully
not seeing the whole
see past our surroundings
take a good look around
we serve a big God
and His blessings abound
when i’m feeling myopic
and my spiritual eyes are blind
i set my sights again on my Savior
and on what lies ahead, not behind
Where are your eyes? I’d love to hear your thoughts, too. And don’t forget to read the comments on Cycleguy’s post. His readers have some great insights…

This is good delton. It just came into my Reader so no wonder I hadn’t read it earlier (via your comment on my blog). Thanks first for the shout out and second, thanks for this fantastic prose. I am not joking when I speak of “gift.”
