Vision

(1 Corinthians 13:12 NLT) Now we see things imperfectly as in a cloudy mirror, but then we will see everything with perfect clarity. All that I know now is partial and incomplete, but then I will know everything completely, just as God now knows me completely.

Lord, You have given us enough vision to see forms and shapes but we lack clarity. The sounds we hear are muffled but still what little sight and hearing we do possess causes us to venture out and some even seem to be good at it but I am not satisfied with these alone. The only thing I do see clearly, the only thing I can hear ring true are You and your words as you gently, tenderly, lovingly guide me. This gift is not exclusive for you promise them to all who humble themselves in order to seek you, who have hearts filled with love for you, for righteousness! You reveal yourself to those who take time to put You first.

Though apart from you I can see like the man whom you laid hands on and asked what he could see he said, “I see men as trees walking around” (Mark 8:24) only forms and shapes, apart from you I think I hear my name being called to come here or come there (for the enemy works hard to deceive) my vision depends on seeing You each morning, my ability to walk and not stumble depends on hearing your voice. No I don’t need to see tomorrow when I can hear you call my name and I need not hear things in the distance when I can see your face clearly. For You are my vision and You are my light, my path is clear and my feet will not stumble when my eyes are upon You.
