Although no human can judge what we feel inwardly, it is true that our eyes are often expressive. If we look closely and know another person well enough, we often notice some indication of their well-being at that time. That certainly doesn't make us mind-readers by any stretch of imagination. But those who know us best are often able to recognize our expressions by simply noticing our eyes.
My husband has learned to do this well after knowing me thirty years. Even when I am listening, laughing or laboring in different situations, giving no indication whatsoever to others around me what I hold inside, he can look into my eyes and know! Those around me, except my precious hubby, have no clue but he does! He has learned to read my heart quite accurately by focusing on my eyes. However, I also believe that he is able to do this best...because he already knows my heart...so very deeply.
I pray that I will learn to focus on God's love...His heart...so intensely that I will see Him in every aspect of this life. For if I truly know Him, I will see this journey through His eyes, His love, His purpose, His peace and His hope. I will follow Him more closely. I will serve Him more fully. I will love Him more dearly. I will live for Him more completely. May my eyes be on Him..above all. ♥~thl
"I keep my eyes always on the Lord.
With Him at my right hand, I will not be shaken." Psalm 16: 8
