Good morning,
Next week I will be having cataract surgery.
This week we look at what the Bible says about our eyes.
Topics to be discussed are eyes in general, eyes are good, eyes are evil, eyes healed by Jesus.
Eyes in general
“The light of the body is the eye: if therefore thine eye be single, thy whole body shall be full of light.” (Matthew 6:22)
“The hearing ear, and the seeing eye, the LORD hath made even both of them.” (Proverbs 20:12)
“The eyes of the Lord are in every place, beholding the evil and the good.” (Proverbs 15:3)
We take our eyes for granted. They are always there and function well. Until they don’t.
When our eyes fail to function correctly, we fail to function correctly.
Think about what happens if we cannot see. We are unable to navigate from point A to B. We are unable to read the Bible. We are unable to drive our cars. We are unable to see God’s creation.
Yet we never think about or thank God for our eyes. God made our eyes. His eyes are watching over us for good and evil.
Consider your eyes and thank God for them.
