Journey Day 26

Give Me Your Eyes

Looked down from a broken sky
Traced out by the city lights
My world from a mile high
Best seat in the house tonight
Toucehd down on the cold black tile
Hold on for the sudden stop
Breath in the familliar shock
Of confusion and chaos
Are these people going somewhere?
Why have I never cared?

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 one forgotten
Give me you eyes so I can see

Step out on a busy street
See a girl and our eyes meet
Does her best to smile at me
To hide whats underneath
There's a man just to her right
Black suit and a bright red tie
Too ashamed to tell his wife
He's out of work
He's buying time
Are these people going somewhere?
Why have I never care?

chorus

I've been there a million times a couple of million eyes
Just moving past me by
I swear I never though I was wrong
Well I want a second glance
So give me a second chance
To see the way you see the people all alone

Chorus

Lately God has been reminding me of the hurting people in the world. Whether it be people overseas or people in my own community. There are so many people that are lost, and don't know the saving grace they can find in Jesus. The best way to tell people about God is to show him to them. There are so many different ways that we can show people the love of Christ thorugh our actions! One way is to donate money to charities or clothing to goodwill. You can also volunteer your time. There are organizations that need your help! I'm hoping that I can voluteer at the God Parent Home, which is a center for unwed mothers. It would be such a blessing for me, and hopefully a blessing for them! Also there are awesome mission trip opportunities! There are people all over the world who haven't even heard his nameIt's our job and our honor to spread his name and goodness to the whole earth! I am prayerfully considering where I should go this coming winter! It's high time I do my part in spreading the message of God's grace! How can I keep it to myself? His power is redeeming and his love is transforming! That is something to share with the world!!

Matthew 28:19-20
"Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age."
