It is time for us to open our eyes
Proverbs 1:29-33 MSG
As it is written, “Because you hated Knowledge and had nothing to do with the Fear-of- God , Because you wouldn’t take my advice and brushed aside all my offers to train you, Well, you’ve made your bed—now lie in it; you wanted your own way—now, how do you like it? Don’t you see what happens, you simpletons, you idiots? Carelessness kills; complacency is murder. First pay attention to me, and then relax. Now you can take it easy—you’re in good hands.”
SEEK WISDOM ( the topic of that passage of scripture Proverbs 1: 20-33)
THOUGHT:
So often there are things going on around us, concerning us and to us that others see and we do not. Things that are harming us. Things that are draining us... Things (including people) that are just not good for us...Others see and we don't...Others see and try to tell us and we don't hear (we don't WANT to hear)... Others see and try to warn us and we don't heed to the warning (We don't want to LISTEN). Eyes Wide Shut...
There are people that have been placed in and that are a part of our lives to see what we are blinded to...To see what we don't want to ... To see those things/ those people that are damaging, controlling, manipulating, using (& more) us and we don't see it, we don't want to see becasue of love, because of relationship, because we just don't want to. We don't want to see it because we don't want to believe it... We don't want to believe that we have fallen prey to the situation and/or circumstance...We don't want to see that we are loosing control of our own life because someone else has learned how to masterfully "play us"....
It is time for us to open our eyes and see the reality of the situation- the alcohol is not a relaxant it is a killer of your body (slowly killing by eating away at your insides) and all of your healthy relationships (on the outside). The substances are killers-altering your personality and controlling your behavior NEGATIVELY. That relationship is a killer by taking up all of your time and energy; manipulating you to do things for them and neglecting yourself and your other relationships. By controlling you for their benefit not allowing you to grow and become that positive prosperous YOU that you are meant to be... By not allowing you to have other relationships... control, manipulation, abuse, guilt....We have all fell in these traps...(by falling prey to it or by being the one who is administering it)
It is time for EYES WIDE OPEN... our natural eye and our spiritual eye... It is time see what is really going on.. It is time to who is really for you... it is time to see the affects this is having on you, having to you and the affects that YOU are causing to others around you...EYES WIDE OPEN.... when we see different we do different... and when we do different we ARE different... Let's open our eyes and see TODAY....there is no better time than NOW...
