Reflection

By: Anabelle Balla

 

The song “ Open Our Eyes, Lord” is one of my favorite Christian songs. It brings me to the deepest part of my soul, releasing my longing yo be in God's presence. To gaze upon Him and seek the comfort of His embrace. Please allow me to share the lyrics here. You can sing it or simply read it as a prayer and be filled with God's overwhelming grace.

Open our eyes, Lord

We want to see Jesus

To reach out and touch Him

And say that we love Him

Open our ears, Lord

And help us to listen

Open our eyes, Lord

We want to see Jesus

May we all start the year seeking and spending time with God. Let us allow the manifestation of Christ, His epihany, to happen in our life. These are gifts we can offer that will surely delight Him, and improve our overall well-being. 😊

I may have shared this same message before and I will continue to share again hoping you and others who are reading this reflection, will be blessed by Christ's epiphany.

Prayer

Father, thank You for Your presence. Allow us to bask in Your love, peace, and joy all the days of our life. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
