Today’s Scripture: A Song of Ascents. To you I lift up my eyes, O you who are enthroned in the heavens! Psalm 123:1 ESV
As the light of the LORD welcomed the eyes of my spirit this morning I basked in His familiar glow. I wondered why I ever look away.
With eyes closed can you lift your eyes to the LORD? Can you see His light? What a wonderful comforting light. LORD, help me to live here in Your light. I lift up and give You my eyes O LORD. I look to You to be reminded of all the great and amazing things You have done.
My voice follows my eyes to You O LORD. I seek to recognize and consume Your daily bread. Please teach me to lift the eyes of my soul and help me know the patience and hope of Your Word. LORD thank You for Your light.
What do you see when you lift your eyes to the LORD?
Today’s Prayer: Our Father who art in Heaven, how great You are! LORD, I lift my eyes to You. Show me what You desire. Show me and speak to me the hope in Your Word. LORD, I thank You for Your light and I ask You to keep me there so I am constantly lifting my eyes to You. Amen

Wow back at you brother Bobby. Your words encourage and confirm God’s word and promise. I pray now that God is directing your upcoming move and will make His way known clearly to you. I am humbled to know God can use me to bring such joy, hope and inspiration in Him. The world has us looking for happiness outside of Him but we have come to know the direction where we need to look for joy. Blessings and vision brother Bobby.
