My Eyes

The Eyes

M?We are impacted by the things we see. Images and scenes can become ingrained in our minds, even from childhood, lasting a lifetime.

Some of the things we see are a part of our daily life experience - home life, school, work, and social interaction.

Yet some of the things we see that impact us are from what we call "entertainment." Some images, often with dramatic music, instill fear. Some are disturbing images; others are violent images.

Other images are sexual and lustful. Others are of immoral, abominable acts. Seeing such images can begin a programming process to cause moral values to decay. Images can gradually make the unacceptable to become acceptable "in our eyes" and in our minds.

As a child of God, we need to be led by His Spirit as to what we look at. We are the temple of God. We must be careful what we see. We must guard our eyes so that we do not let evil enter into our minds and heart. We must not allow the world to program us with its immoral values. And, we must protect the eyes of our children.

"I will set no wicked thing before mine eyes…" - Psalm 101:3 KJV
