This weekend at church our worship leader sang the song "Give Me Your Eyes" by Brandon Heath. I've heard it a couple times before, but it just really hit me this weekend.
I want the chorus to be my prayer:
Give me your eyes for just one second
Give me your eyes so I can see
Everything that I keep missing
Give me your love for humanity
Give me your arms for the broken-hearted
The ones that are far beyond my reach
Give me your heart for the ones forgotten
Give me your eyes so I can see
I think that I get so caught up with what is going on in my life, I don't pause to notice what is going on with everyone else. There is a line right before the first chorus that says "All those people are going somewhere, why have I never cared." When I heard that line on Sunday it was like a punch in the stomach. People come through our lives all the time, do we stop to take notice?
Here is the song so you can check it out for yourself.
Today I'm thankful for:
* Young Living Essential Oils
* My friend Jennifer
* Sunshine on a cloudy day..ok just being lyrical. LOL It was a BEAUTIFUL day though!
* The loving support of my amazing husband.
Blessings!

It is so important to pay attention to the little things that I make a special effort all the time not to miss them or the people who help create them.
