The Lord doesn't always see the things we see. Rather, He isn't blinded by what we see.
We see bad news from the doctor - bad X-Rays or bad CT scans. He sees the healing He'll do to surprise you at your next visit.
We see bills coming and jobs NOT coming. He sees that anonymous gift that comes at the last minute that saves you financially, or that job that's just around the corner, as long as you don't give up.
We see the hurt friendships, the lacking trust, the pain from neglect. He sees Redemption and Forgiveness at work.
I pray that this year, I am not blinded by what I see, but that I am open to see what the Lord sees. I pray that this year, we all look with His eyes - at other people, and events, and circumstances. That we would have His eyes.
