Eyes…

 
Interesting how often God’s word makes reference to eyes and sight..πŸ€”

A quick search suggests there may be over 500 references to eyes and sight in the bible.😳. Perhaps God knew just how influential the focus of those two little orbs would be to our minds, bodies and sprits.

 πŸ‘‰I will lift up my eyes to the Hills..Psalm 121:1
 πŸ‘‰The eyes of the Lord are on the righteous, and his ears are attentive to their cry. Psalm 34:15
 πŸ‘‰..Let your eyes look straight ahead..Proverbs 4:25
πŸ‘‰.anyone who is bitten can look at it and live. Numbers 21 8-9
πŸ‘‰ "Why do you look at the speck of sawdust in your brother's eye and pay no attention to the plank in your own eye?" Matthew 7:3
πŸ‘‰ "...no eye has seen, no ear has heard, and no human mind has conceived—the things God has prepared for those who love him." 1 Cor 2:9

The above are just a few verses offering advice and encouragement regarding our eyes and focus. How often what we "look" at—physically, spiritually, financially, emotionally, or even health-wise—will have a direct impact on our actions and reactions. πŸ€”

There are "eye verses" for whether we need hope, direction, peace, encouragement, or even rebuke or deliverance, and probably a whole lot more.

So as we enter the new year, what are your "eyes" focused on?
Are there spiritual, emotional, financial, health, family, or other challenges drawing your mind's eye, and demanding your attention?

This 2025, may the God who sees us, help us to fix our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith. Yes, our eyes may drift, but thank God for grace... again and again, to readjust our lens view back to Him. πŸ™

Verse of the month: Genesis 16:13

Site of first Religious Radio Broadcast to a UK Church


on air

Built in 1880, our church holds a unique place in history as the site of the first religious radio broadcast to a UK church. This groundbreaking event which took place on the 30th July 1922, allowed worshippers in Christ Church to hear Dr James Ebenezer Boon as he broadcast from Blackheath, paving the way for modern Christian broadcasting.

In 2023, Paul Kerensa a well known writer and comedian, visited the church and re-enacted the broadcast, as shown here.
