Taking back our eyes


Ive been really moved lately by the "Eye Sex" generation that we live in now.

As Matthew 6:22 says that your "eye is the lamp of the body" and some of the studies I have been researching about the way that violence in the media can affect not only development of children later, but even how they perceive violence around them.

Studies are showing that more and more people have become desensitized when it comes to what pain and violence is today. Now transfer that to how much "Sex Marketing" is around us and its no wonder why we see women and men devalued for nothing more than objects to be lusted for.

The truth of Christ's words 2000 years ago continue to ring true now, as we sit smack dab in the middle of a generation that has allowed our hearts, souls and minds to be filled with contempt for humankind.

Lets take back our eyes and not allow them to rest until we've focused so hard at the cross we see nothing else!

  2. Love the post. As a mom, I so agree. I so weep. I so trust God to put His hands on my kids' eyes (& mine) every day. We must be the transformation & love in action that restores the sight to the blind on this distorted planet. Linking arms w/ you.
