Closing ones eyes can help us to see in the Spirit

Open and closed Eyes!!!!

I am a very visual kind of person.
We all are!!!... Let's face it!!!
We see a beautiful View...
Could be a Movie..
Could be a Cathedral interior..
Could be a Starry Sky or an Alpine Mountain Scene..
Plus...Plus...Plus...
And it moves us.
We feel better..
But many times too, if the object of our attention is not to our liking, then instead of becoming negative and judgemental, JUST CLOSE YOUR EYES..and see Jesus in that situation.. He is there and by closing ones eyes we see Him!!

I have a very great friend and on Christmas day he gave me a very good tip...
He has very bad eyesight and his condition is incurable. In his own words he says, “I see like through a tightly netted veil!”

I have been having problems in Church...
Do you have problems in Church too?
I look at one Priest or Preacher or members of the congregation,and I like what I see or some times I do not like what I see.

By closing my eyes I am learning to see Jesus and not just the person or event.
During Holy Mass, this is a very visual affair..
However many times like my half or three quarter blind friend told me..One can see so much better with closed eyes.. Blot out the personalities and instead see Jesus.
See Jesus in them..
He is in them even when they are behaving not to our liking..
For me this is a very good tip and I am very grateful for the lesson.
Happy New Year!!!
JUST CLOSING ONES EYES CAN HELP US TO SEE IN THE SPIRIT.
IT IS LIKE GOING INTO ONES CLOSET AND PRAYING IN SECRET..
This can be useful many times during the hustle and bustle of life.
