Look on me and answer, LORD my God. Give light to my eyes, or I will sleep in death, and my enemy will say, “I have overcome him,” and my foes will rejoice when I fall. - Psalms 13:3-4

Faith is the eye of the soul. Ironically, faith comes not from sight but from hearing. In the spiritual realm, faith is sight. In the physical realm, do not depend on what you see. If God’s promise has not yet come to pass, do not be swayed by circumstances—believe in His promises more.

A believer sees what others cannot. That is why he does not waver or shake, even when others fall. Something within his spirit anchors him, making his eyes shine with clarity through every trial. "Lord, let me see what You see."

Where others see a glass half-empty, I see it half-full—because of Your anointing. Do not fix your eyes on the hole in the donut, but on the donut itself.

As long as God has not given up on you, never give up.

Whatever dims my vision, Lord, do not let me sleep with darkened eyes. Do not let me turn off the light within me. Take away everything that clouds my sight from Your promises. Remove anything that keeps me from seeing You in my life.

"Where are You when I need You the most?" No matter how you feel, God has never left you. Put your hope in Him.

Bring your complaints to God, but love your enemies. You do not need to respond to them—just keep loving and blessing them. But do not let their words define you.

But I trust in your unfailing love; my heart rejoices in your salvation. - Psalms 13:5

Jesus loves me! This I know, For the Bible tells me so; Little ones to Him belong; They are weak, but He is strong.

Yes, Jesus loves me! Yes, Jesus loves me! Yes, Jesus loves me! The Bible tells me so.

Jesus loves me! This I know, As He loved so long ago, Taking children on His knee, Saying, “Let them come to Me.”

Jesus loves me still today, Walking with me on my way, Wanting as a friend to give Light and love to all who live.

Jesus loves me! He who died Heaven’s gate to open wide; He will wash away my sin, Let His little child come in.

Jesus loves me! He will stay Close beside me all the way; Thou hast bled and died for me, I will henceforth live for Thee.

- Anna B. Warner I will sing the Lord’s praise, for he has been good to me. - Psalms 13:6

When we truly believe in the love of Jesus, our faith turns into praise. Real praise flows from within, like a wellspring of living water. If our hearts are anchored in God’s love, knowing He is for us, we cannot stay still—we are moved to praise. A person certain of God’s love cannot help but praise Him.

Faith sees beyond the present. It teaches us to see miracles before they happen. But faith also goes beyond miracles—it sees heaven itself. Even when blessings do not come on earth, faith fixes its eyes on the God who reigns in heaven. Faith is the substance of what we hope for, the evidence of what is unseen.

A faithful heart does not say, “If You bless me, then I will praise You.” Instead, faith praises first. "I will sing to the Lord, for He has already been so good to me."

Jesus is a spiritual man, a person filled with the spirit of wisdom, explaining the Kingdom of God to rational people, people in whom the soul prevails and the loving passion that comes from philia, the love mixed with virtue and friendship. The disciples cannot understand the depth of the words of their master and Jesus knows it, they have not received the holy spirit, the spirit and inner master that reveals all the mysteries in the heart of man, because with him we perceive the world with the mind of God: "To the pure, all things are pure" Titus 1:15. That is why Jesus says goodbye at the last supper with the promise of the Holy Spirit after his resurrection and ascension to heaven, but this promise is given to them to the extent that they can understand. Jesus clarifies many things to the disciples, but others cannot be explained, but instead, they have to be experienced internally to be understood, that is why the Kingdom of God, the dominion of the divine perfections, is a mystery, as the depth of the oceans. The gospel then tells us the explanations of our Lord Jesus: "But now I am going to him who sent me. None of you asks me, ´Where are you going?´ Rather, you are filled with grief because I have said these things. But very truly I tell you, it is for your good that I am going away. Unless I go away, the Advocate will not come to you; but if I go, I will send him to you. When he comes, he will prove the world to be in the wrong about sin and righteousness and judgment: about sin, because people do not believe in me; about righteousness, because I am going to the Father, where you can see me no longer; and about judgment, because the prince of this world now stands condemned. ´I have much more to say to you, more than you can now bear.´" John 16:5-12.
