All Eyes on You

"Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength. These commandments that I give you today are to be on your hearts. Impress them on your children. Talk about them when you sit at home and when you walk along the road, when you lie down and when you get up."  --Deuteronomy 6:5-7 


I've taken my eyes off of You, and that's why I'm so agitated. I'm trying to keep my cool through my own strength, and it's exhausting. 


You say, "Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls."


I am anxious about being judged, not measuring up, the same old thing. Exhausting. To take my mind off of my insecurities, I need somewhere else to focus my attention. 


Here is Justin Roberts' song, All Eyes on You:


The world is unfurled for You
so soft and light so burning bright
so arms that cling so hearts that sing
don't cry now, just rest your eyes
sorrows will fade to stars unmade
and dreams unsung, thy will be done
night time now, all eyes on you
beautiful sight, day into night
dark into light, cuddle up tight
and if you wake, my soul to take
by your sweet grace, time won't erase, this...
All eyes on you
All eyes on you
Your eyes are, so warm and true
so soft and light, so burning bright
so arms that cling makes my heart sing
All eyes on you


I pray that I will be your eyes and hands and presence in the lives of those who need You right now. Amen
