But blessed are your eyes, because they see; and your ears, because they hear. Matthew 13:16 NLT 

When God opens our eyes and humbles our hearts with His presence, He readies us to witness timely rewards and recognize the power of His strength. He tugs at our souls as we stand in awe and discover how to welcome His greatness.  

We were not created to live without appreciation for the many ways God blesses us. He readies us to rise and longs for us to notice HOW He sets the stage for what’s to come. He guides and provides! 

Before the sun sets at the end of each day, God has already prepared us for tomorrow. He calls us to rest in the promise of His love and remember His mercies are new every day. He helps us remain faithful and TRUST. 

The JOY of the Lord is our strength! The path toward wholeness will be found if we seek Him with ALL of our hearts, allow ourselves to grow deeper in the love of Christ and recognize how to follow. He is the way to the Father.  

God is great! The power of His love will reign forever! No matter what we experience, there will never be a day we wake without His blessings. God will show us, as we look for the GOOD, embrace a heart of gratitude and never become too busy to notice. 

I pray that your hearts will be flooded with light so that you can understand the confident hope he has given to those he called—his holy people who are his rich and glorious inheritance. Ephesians 1:18 NLT

Dear God, thank you for what we see when we take time to notice. Open our eyes for the gifts of Your greatness so we will welcome the peace of Jesus and find joy in the promise of Your love. Forgive us when we forget who’s in charge of ALL things. Thank you for the beautiful way You reveal Your mighty presence! You humble our hearts and we are grateful. Thank you for Your many blessings! You guide, provide and remind us WHY we need YOU every day of our lives. Thank you, Lord. Help us draw closer to YOU. Amen
