Be The Light

I picked up my bible today to read whatever God wanted me to. He lead me straight to Matthew 6:22-24.
"Your eye is a lamp that provides light for your body. When your eye is good, your whole body is filled with light. But when your eye is bad, your whole body is filled with darkness. And if the light you think you have is actually darkness, how deep that darkness is! No one can serve two masters. For you will hate one and love the other; you will be devoted to one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and money."
It really hit me. What we see and how we perceive it makes a very big difference in our lives. If we see things with a pure heart and with an optimistic attitude, it can make all the difference. We have to see things through God's eyes and things will look so much brighter! And at the same time, things can look so much dimmer. We could see so much more good in things and we could be so aware to the needs around us... I want to see with God's eyes and be used for His purpose. I want whats inside of me to be pure and full of light. But I can only do so with God's help.
