Recently I started to have migraines again. So bad that I had to go to the Emergency Room with one, and that hasn't happened for about a year. I have been blessed, but couldn't understand why all of sudden I was having them again. I realized that my eyes have been hurting some so I knew I was way overdue for an eye examination. So I went.
The doctor said in a joking manner, "You are driving without glasses." That then was the realization that I needed to be wearing glasses all the time to see things clearly and to no longer get those headaches from my bad eyes.
I think we are often the same in our Christian life. We get so used to seeing things our way that when God speaks to use we don't even recognize His voice. We squint through life, like I was, that we often forget the big picture of what we were created for. We get so bogged down with our own issues, problems, and opinions that God's can't be seen.
We need to have a spiritual eye exam and see if we are seeing clearly. We need to look at things through God's eyes not our own. Our own is often ruled by the flesh and we need to be ruled by the Spirit. Sometimes we just need to stop and recognize who God is and who we are truly in Him. Our vision is not clear unless we look through God's eyes not our own and not just see His will but also do it.
