Seeing Better or Blurred Vision?

One of the things that upsets me the most as i get older is my lack of good vision sometimes. My wife says that i crouch over the steering wheel like some kind of humpback whale when i drive looking both ways all the time like some giant turtle.

I guess I am not as cool as I used to be or was I ever? When I cannot see something clearly it frustrates me. However, I used to not need glasses. I can remember being able to see for miles it seemed where now I squint my eyes and it crumbles my face up like some old burger wrapper.

This lack of vision is frustrating because it means that you cannot see clearly without aid. This past week i changed the color and the resolution and size on my office computer so I can see and read better. Although I like the change, it's a clear sign that I need it. Maybe next week, I will need thicker glasses or maybe some sort of giant magnifying glass?

How does this apply spiritually? Well, there's a lot that happens around us everyday that we need to open our eyes up to. The truth is the Lord sends us opportunities everyday to do something for Him instead of for ourselves. The truth is there are people all around us who don't have the same sight you have in terms of your worldview. The truth is we can either look clearly at what's around us and ignore it or stare into the blur and wonder what does God really want us to see?

How many people do you know who are lost? How many people do you know who can't find their way in the darkness they are in? Do you care to see? Are your eyes entirely focused on you or not focused at all? Check your eyes. See what God wants you to see. If you do this, you will come in contact with your purpose and your mission as a Christian. It will be as real and as clear to you as pure water brought down from the sky you look to with such wonder and awe. God bless you as you see God's will more clearly.

...and that's what I'm talking about. Love Rob
