To See What You Can See. Series

Contributed by Colin Mcgeer on May 1, 2023

To see for me is the most important sense of the five senses. The physical realm without the spiritual is meaningless. We need a revelation of who Christ is. We need our spiritual eyes to be opened by the Holy Spirit.

I think if I had to choose the most important sense amongst the 5 senses, I would choose sight. I love colour and unique objects in the environment. I am always looking to see something new or different. With our eyes we can discern so much about people. We can see what they are feeling, if ...read more

If God can open our spiritual eyes to see from the inside out the beginning and the end of our situation we will know the right step to take and we will have more confident in Him and won’t have to worry much.

Am sure some of us will be wondering why we need God to open our eyes when we haven’t close them or when we are not blind.
