Day 1

The lamp of the body is the eye. If therefore your eye is good, your whole body will be full of light. But if your eye is bad (evil), your whole body will be full of darkness. If therefore the light that is in you is darkness, how great is that darkness.

Matthew 6:22-23 (NKJV)

Do You Have Good or Bad Eyes?

Whether you have good or bad eyes will determine how you see things, which in turn will determine how happy you will be. Two people can see or hear about the exact same event, but perceive it differently, due to having different types of eyes. The one with bad eyes sees things through negative lenses. If for example someone he knows doesn’t greet him warmly, he automatically assumes that the person has something against him, instead of thinking perhaps the person had a lot on his mind.

Negative perception will bring about an unhappy emotion. Unhappy emotions will collectively result in unhappiness in your life. Therefore, you need to stop unhappy emotions at the onset, which means perceive things positively in the first place. Jesus said, “The lamp of the body is the eye.” If your source of light becomes darkened, then what’s going to give you light? Nothing, and you will find yourself in a very dark place.

Prayer or Reflection

Lord, heal my eyes so that I may have good eyes to see with. Let me see things through positive lenses. Let me see thing through the eyes of love and faith.

Amen
