Have you ever sat down, looked in the mirror and stared straight into your eyes?
As I was putting on eyeliner the other week at my make-up mirror (Long story short about my make-up mirror is that it was my Granny’s and I actually remember her using it!) I started to look into my eyes. While I was doing this the song that Brandon Heath has become popular for “Give Me Your Eyes” started playing in my head and, of course, I began to sing along.
Then I stopped, and I looked deep into my own eyes. I will be honest; it was more of an intense moment than I thought it would be. I spent a good bit of time just sitting there, looking into my eyes.
Who have I become? Is it the person that I am a person that I thought I would be now five years ago? Is it a person that God is pleased with?
Every word we speak or action we do shapes who we are today which ultimately shapes who we will become years from now.
So, the next time you or I go to speak that word or do that action that we know we shouldn't we need to think about those days when we will be putting on our eye liner and have to look into our eyes. Or maybe more importantly, the day that Jesus will look into our eyes face-to-face.
