Looking Through God’s Eyes
Sometimes we see ourselves in a really negative way, doubting whether we’re even capable of doing good or reaching our potential as believers. But God doesn’t see us that way. He looks at us with kindness, grace, and love, recognizing that every person has value. Imagine someone praying desperately, their voice trembling as they try to find stability in the chaos of life. Even though their life is full of struggles and they haven’t achieved what they hoped for, God’s view remains gentle. He sees love in that person, even when others might only see despair. This shows us that in God’s eyes, everyone—no matter how small or insignificant they seem—is loved and important. From God’s perspective, there are no “losers” or hopeless cases. He sees us as humans with feelings, hopes, and fears. Whether it’s a lonely child, a lost father, or a person without a home, God’s view is always full of compassion and understanding. Even when life feels cold or unfair, heaven feels the pain and knows each person’s suffering. The fire of compassion shines brightly in God’s eyes, giving hope and comfort to everyone who needs it. We need to look past our struggles and see the grace that’s inside each of us. It reminds us that we all deserve love and kindness. God’s grace is always there, ready for us to accept. When we show empathy and trust in God, we can find hope and a sense of belonging. And in God’s eyes, no one is ever truly lost. We simply need to accept Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior and receive God’s free gift of grace. Homework assignment for the week: Listen to the song “In Heaven’s Eyes” by Sandi Patty.
