How are Your Eyes?

Send us a text

Considering all the tools you’re working with for sexual wholeness- group work, reading, one on one counseling, software filters - how are your eyes?

A key component to your becoming whole is how you are seeing other people. Hashtags, movies, social media scrolls and commercials are at war with the important work you’re doing. Open your eyes to acknowledge the battle for your vision.

Then open your heart to pray, “Lord, help me see.”

Highlights:

We strive in our culture to become attractive because we want others to see us as “good.”

Goodness is not found in other people being drawn to us. Goodness is found by virtue of being created by God.

It is up to the beholder to see the good God has sown into other people.

There is something wrong with our eyes, with our hearts, when we are perceiving people as either objects or obstacles.

How do we see people differently? This is a process of growing in the virtue of love. It is a lifelong process, and it comes with suffering and with trial and with effort and by grace.

The process begins when we acknowledge where & how we are wrongly seeing people, where we are competing or comparing, weighing or measuring their worth with our eyes. We confess the wrongness of that before the Lord. We ask the Lord to search our hearts.

We pray - asking God to give us eyes to see.

When you recognize you don’t see others with decency, pray the words of the blind man, “Lord, I want to see.”
