Seeing with The Eyes of the Heart


I wanted to share this wonderful excerpt from the book of the 1984 Nobel Peace Prize winner Archbishop Desmond Tutu called: "God Has A Dream". I am trying to make this part of my daily perception and understanding about life and others.

"We must learn to see with the eyes of God - that is, to see with eyes of the heart and not just the eyes of the head. The eyes of the heart are not concerned with appearances but with the essences, and as we cultivate these eyes we are able to learn from our suffering and to see the world with more loving, forgiving, humble, generous eyes".

The eyes of God only discerns the things of God so that task is very important to "les hommes". Man cannot fully understand what it is to be walking and literally seeing things with the eyes of God. When you see with God's eyes you have the strength totally rely on God and know that you know that whatever it is that isn't in his will must go. That no matter what happens in your life, God's unchanging hand will see you through. So the most important thing first is to get out of "self".
