Matthew 6:19-23
The lamp of the body is the eye. If the eye is sound your whole body will be filled with light."
Quite often in the hospital setting I must figure out how to communicate with patients who can't talk for one reason or another. And for most, these are times when they have a lot to say or process or scream about. Eyes; to speak all of this.
How often I feel as if someone has looked right through me or peered deep within me. In those instances there is raw authenticity...nowhere to hide. Light can work wonders in this environment.
I pray for eyes that welcome
Without words
The other into my darkness
That longs to be healed
And filled with light
Amen
